$A$ block of mass $m$ is kept in an elevator which starts moving downward with an acceleration $a$ as shown in the figure. The block is observed by two observers $A$ and $B$ for a time interval $t_0$. According to observer $B$,the net work done on the block is

  • A
    $-\frac{1}{2}m{a^2}t_0^2$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}m{a^2}t_0^2$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}mgat_0^2$
  • D
    $-\frac{1}{2}mgat_0^2$

$A$ body constrained to move along the $z$-axis of a coordinate system is subject to a constant force $F$ given by $F = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \text{ N}$,where $\hat{i}, \hat{j}, \hat{k}$ are unit vectors along the $x, y,$ and $z$-axes of the system respectively. What is the work done (in $J$) by this force in moving the body a distance of $4 \text{ m}$ along the $z$-axis?
