JEE Main Physics question
**Statement I:** The work done in bringing a body down from the top to the base along a frictionless incline plane is the same as the work done in bringing it down the vertical side. **Statement II:** The gravitational force on the body along the inclined plane is the same as that along the vertical side.
Answer: (C)
Solution
Since gravity is conservative, the work done depends only on the height dropped, so it is indeed the same via either path (Statement I true). However, the force COMPONENT along the incline (mg
