In this question, a statement of assertion
is followed by a statement of reason
. Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion: The work done in bringing a body down from the top to the base along a frictionless inclined plane is the same as the work done in bringing it down the vertical side.
Reason: The gravitational force on the body along the inclined plane is the same as that along the vertical side.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsC
Work done in moving an object against gravitational force depends only on the initial and
final position of the object, not upon the path taken. But gravitational force on the body along the inclined plane is not same as that along the vertical and it varies with the angle of inclination.
