hello people ,
We know that work done is scalar because it’s the product of two vector quantities so it needs only magnitude to be defined.
But look …W = Fd cos theta
When the acting force is in the opposite direction to displacement then theta=180
Therefore the work done becomes negative in this case so work is affected by the directions and its scalar so how?
