A block of mass \(m\) is kept on a platform which starts from rest with constant acceleration \(g/2\) upward, as shown in figure. Work done by normal reaction on block in time \(t\) is

  1. A \( - \frac{{m{g^2}{t^2}}}{8}\)
  2. B \(  \frac{{m{g^2}{t^2}}}{8}\)
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D \(  \frac{{3m{g^2}{t^2}}}{8}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(  \frac{{3m{g^2}{t^2}}}{8}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{array}{l} W = F\cos \theta \\ \,\,\,\,\,\, = m\left( {g + \frac{g}{2}} \right) \times \left[ {\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{g}{2} \times {t^2}} \right] \end{array}\)
