Gravitational potential difference between a point on surface of planet and another point 10 m above is 4J/kg. Considering gravitational field to be uniform, how much work is donw in moving a mass of 2kg from the surface to a point 5 m above the surface?A. 4JB. 5JC. 6JD. 7J

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Gravitational field `g=-(DeltaV)/(Deltax)=-((-4)/(10))=(4)/(10)J//kg` m
Work done in moving a mass of 2kg from the surface to a point 5m above the surface
`W=mgh=(2kg)((4)/(10)(J)/(kgm))(5m)=4J`
