Gravitation question

2022 · Q168

NEETPhysicsGravitationMCQ+4 / −1

A gravitational field is present in a region and a mass is shifted from A to B through different paths as shown. If W1, W2 and W3 represent the work done by the gravitational force along the respective paths, then :

NEET 2022 Phase 2 Physics - Gravitation Question 12 English

  1. A
    W1 < W2 < W3
  2. B
    W1 = W2 = W3
  3. C
    W1 > W2 > W3
  4. D
    W1 > W3 > W2
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: B

Since the gravitational field is conservative in nature hence the work done would depend only on the initial and final positions and not on the path followed by the mass.

Hence, W1 = W2 = W3
