If `W_(1)` ,`W_(2)` and `W_(3)` represent 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 ` `W_(1) W_(2)` and `W_(3)`

A

`W_1gtW_2gtW_3`

B

`W_1=W_2=W_3`

C

`W_1ltW_2ltW_3`

D

`W_2gtW_1gtW_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
