A body of mass m is revolving in circular orbit with constant speed. What is the work done on the body to revolve it?
Centripetal force, which acts along the radius and directed towards the centre is required to keep the body in circular orbit and to revolve with constant speed.
Instantaneous displacement of particle is always perpendicular to force.
Hence work required to revolve the body is zero.
