$A$ 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 onto the table is

  • A
    $MgL$
  • B
    $MgL/3$
  • C
    $MgL/9$
  • D
    $MgL/18$
