Conservation of momentum is derived from Newton's laws of motion Mathematically it is expressed as: dP/dt =d(mv)/dt mdv/dt =ma=Fnet initial momentum =final momentum read less

The Earth moving round the Sun in a circular orbit is acted upon by a force, and hence work must be done on the Earth by this force. Do you agree with this statement?
The force on earth jn circular trajectory is gravity,acting radially inward...the direction of motion is tangential.....as u knw work is dot product of force and dx, the work done is zero.
