- Zero
- Maximum

उत्तर
Angle between force and displacement to get

Component of displacement in the direction of force.

Component of force in direction of displacement
W = F × Component of displacement
= F · cos θ
W = F · S cos θ
W = S · F cos θ
(i) Zero work is 90°
(ii) Maximum work is 0°. ...`[(∵ cos 90° = 0),(∵ cos 0° = 1)]`
