4.The work done by a centripetal force acting on an object moving at a constant linear speed is:

I. zero because the centripetal force is perpendicular to the displacement of the object.
II. not zero because a force acts on the object and the object moves
III. not zero because energy is required to turn an object
IV. zero because the object is moving with constant speed

Group of answer choices
I
III
II
IV
