Q A uniform chain of mass M and length L is kept on a table Suppose
L n length hangs down the table, what work has to be done by the
applied force and gravity in order to pull the chain up the
table

dear student
consider a element dm of length dx at a distance below the table here dm= ml*dxsmall amount of work done to ull it a height x is dw=dmgxwhich is dw=mldx*g*xtotal work done = ∫dw=∫0L/nmgxdxl=mgx220L/nl =mgln2 AS Work done by gravity is negative of work done by external force so work done by gravity = -mgln2 answer

Explain this question. Q. A uniform chain of mass M and length L is kept on a table. Suppose L n length hangs down the table, what work has to be done by the applied force and gravity in order to pull the chain up the table.

Explain this question.

Q. A uniform chain of mass M and length L is kept on a table. Suppose $\frac{L}{n}$ length hangs down the table, what work has to be done by the applied force and gravity in order to pull the chain up the table.
