Question

The work done when moving amass, m, through a potential difference of AV, is W. What is the

work done when moving twice the mass through potential difference 3AV, in terms of W?

A-3W/2

B-2W/3

C-W/6

D-6W



please show working, urgent

Answer 1

Since the gravitational field is a conservative field, hence the work done in taking a particle from one point to another in a gravitational field of path independent.

⟹ w
