A box is lifted vertically by 6m in 3 s.
(i) If the box is lifted to the same height in a zig-zag way what would be the change in the work done ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Gravitational force is a conservative force . Hence work done to lift a body to the same height will be the same whatever may the nature of the path be.
