If the Earth revolves around the Sun in circular orbit then what would be the work done by the gravitational force?

Answer»

Gravitational force provides the necessary centripetal force, which at right angles to motion of the Earth, so by the relation W = Ed cos θ
∴ W = Fd cos 90 = 0
hence no work is done by gravitational force.
