     A ball is released from the top of a tower. The ratio of work done by force of gravity in first, second and third second of the motion of the ball is

    A)  1 : 2 : 3                                

    B)  1 : 4 : 9

    C)  1 : 3 : 5                

    D)         1 : 5 : 3

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    When the ball is released from the top of tower then ratio of distances covered by the ball in first, second and third second \[{{h}_{I}}:{{h}_{II}}:{{h}_{III}}=1:3:5\][because\[{{h}_{n}}\propto (2n-1)\]] \[\therefore \]Ratio of work done \[mg{{h}_{I}}:mg{{h}_{II}}:mg{{h}_{III}}=1:3:5\]
