Question
If W1, W2 and W3 represents the work done in moving a particle from A to B along three different paths 1, 2 and 3, respectively (as shown) in the gravitational field of a point mass m, find the correct relation between W1, W2 and W3.  
If W1, W2 And W3 Represents The Work Done In Moving A Partic...
Options:
A .  W1 > W2 > W3
B .  W1 = W2 = W3
C .  W1 < W2 < W3
D .  W2 > W1 > W3
Answer: Option B
:
B
Gravitational field is conservative in nature hence the work done does not depend on the path followed but only on initial and final positions
