Which of the following statements is true about the motion of the object:
I. The resultant work done on the object is zero.
II. The velocity of the object is constant.
III. The object is accelerating
A. Ⅰ only
B. Ⅱ only
C. Ⅱ and Ⅲ only
D. Ⅰ and Ⅲ only
参考答案:
D

Explanation:
I is correct. The accelerating force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion, therefore no work is done. $W = F_s \cos (\theta)$, and $\theta$ is always 90°. Also, $W = \Delta E_k$ and the speed of the object is constant so there is no change in kinetic energy.
II is incorrect. Because velocity is a vector quantity and the direction is constantly changing, velocity is not constant.
III is correct. Because velocity is constantly changing, the object is always accelerating.
