A bicyclist comes to a skidding stop in 10m. During  this process, the force on the bicycle due to the road is 200 N and is directly opposed to the motion. The work
done by the cycle on the road is [NCERT Exemplar] 

a
+ 2000 J
b
-200 J
c
zero
d
- 20000 J

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Here, work is done by the frictional force on the cycle and is equal to -200 x 10 = - 2000 J. As the road is not moving, hence work done by the cycle on the road = zero.
