Question

If $W subscript 1 end subscript comma W subscript 2 end subscript$ and $W subscript 3 end subscript$ 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 $W subscript 1 end subscript comma W subscript 2 end subscript$ and $W subscript 3 end subscript$

$W_{1} > W_{2} > W_{3}$
$W_{1} = W_{2} = W_{3}$
$W_{1} < W_{2} < W_{3}$
$W_{2} > W_{1} > W_{3}$

The correct answer is: $W subscript 1 end subscript equals W subscript 2 end subscript equals W subscript 3 end subscript$

Gravitational force is a conservative force and work done against it is a point function i.e. does not depend on the path
