Work in Inertial Frames


Assertion (A): Work done by a force is always same in all inertial frame of references.
Reason (R): Work is an invariant physical quantity.
 
Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)
Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)
(A) is true but (R) is false
Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

Work done (\(W = \vec{F} \cdot \vec{d}\)) depends on displacement (\(\vec{d}\)) which is frame-dependent in different inertial frames. Therefore, work is not always the same and is not an invariant quantity. Both Assertion and Reason are false.
