Question

One of the force acting on a particle is conservative then which of the following statement(s) are true above this conservative force.

• A. Its work is non zero when the particle moves exactly once around any close path.
• B. Its work equal the change in kinetic energy of the particle.
• C. Then that particular force must be constant
• D. Its work depends on the end points of the motion, not on the path between

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

The correct options are
B Its work equal the change in kinetic energy of the particle.
D Its work depends on the end points of the motion, not on the path between

For any kind of force energy theorem is applicable. Hence, Its work equal the change in kinetic energy of the particle is correct.

And for a conservation force work depends on the end point of the motion.
