Which of the following statements is/are true? Check all that apply. Check all that apply.

a. The work done by a conservative force depends on the path taken.

b. A potential energy function can be specified for a nonconservative force.

c. A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

d. A nonconservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

e. A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies. T

f. he work done by a nonconservative force depends on the path taken.

The following statements are true:

c. A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

e. A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

f. The work done by a non-conservative force depends on the path taken.

Explanation:

The statement a is incorrect as the work done by a conservative force does not depend upon the the path taken instead work done by a non - conservative force depend upon the path taken. The statement b is incorrect as the potential energy function can not be specified for a non-conservative force but it is specified for a conservative force. The statement d is also incorrect as the non-conservative force doesn't permits a two way conversion between Kinetic and Potential energies but the conservative force permits this conversion.
