Which of the following is/are conservative force (s)-
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(a, b, c)
Since W = 
Clearly for forces and the integration do not require any information of the path taken.
For : W C = 
(dX 
+ dY 
)
= 
Taking: X 2 + Y 2 = t
2XdX + 2Y dY = dt
XdX + YdY = 
W C = 
which is solvable
Hence , and are conservative forces. But requires some more information on path. Hence non-conservative.
