A rod of length l and mass m fixed at one end, is hanging vertically. The other end is now raised so that the rod makes an angle 30° with horizontal line. The work done in the process will be :
MEDIUM

The graphs below show the magnitude of the force on a particle as it moves along the positive X-axis from the origin to X=X1. The force is parallel to the X-axis and conservative. The maximum magnitude F1 has the same value for all graphs. Rank the situations according to the change in the potential energy associated with the force, least (or most negative) to greatest (or most positive).
