A body of mass \(50 \mathrm{~kg}\) is lifted to a height of \(20 \mathrm{~m}\) from the ground in the two different ways as shown in the figures. The ratio of work done against the gravity in both the respective cases will be _______.

  1. A \(1: 1\)
  2. B \(2: 1\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{3}: 2\)
  4. D \(1: 2\)
Verified Solution
