a_1 =acceleration of small block  a_2 =acceleration of big block  f=friction between both blocks    assume a_1 =a_2 =a:  ma_1 =f≤μmg=0.5mg  mg−f=2ma_2   mg−ma_1 =2ma_2   g−a=2a  ⇒a=(g/3)  f=ma_1 =(1/3)mg<0.5mg  i.e. assumption is correct. both blocks  move the same distance d.  work done by force f is  W=fd=((mgd)/3)  ⇒answer (1)

Can you solve the same question if  a force of 2mg is applied on the big  block and the big block moves a distance  of d?  assume the big block is big enough such  that the small block always remains  on the big block.

if you get the same result, don′t wonder,  it′s just an accident.
