A uniform chain of length \(L\) and mass \(M\) is lying on a smooth table and one-third of its length is hanging vertically down over the edge of the table. If \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity, the work required to pull the hanging part on the table is:
1. \(MgL\)
2. \(\dfrac{MgL}{3}\)
3. \(\dfrac{MgL}{9}\)
4. \(\dfrac{MgL}{18}\)
The work done by a person in carrying a box of mass 10 kg to a vertical height of 10 m is 4900 J. The mass of the person is:

4. 55 kg
1. \(u^{2} \sin^{2}\alpha\)
2. \(\dfrac{m u^{2} \cos^{2} \alpha}{2}\)
3. \(\dfrac{m u^{2}\sin^{2} \alpha}{2}\)
4. \(- \dfrac{m u^{2}\sin^{2} \alpha}{2}\)
