Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: An object moves from position $r_{1}$ to position $r_{2}$ under a conservative force field $\vec{F}$. The work done by the force is $W = -\int_{r_{1}}^{r_{2}} \vec{F} \cdot d\vec{r}$.
Statement $II$: Any object moving from one location to another location can follow an infinite number of paths. Therefore, the amount of work done by the object changes with the path it follows for a conservative force.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • B
    Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
  • C
    Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
  • D
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false

Where $a$ and $b$ are positive constants. The law of the force governing the system is:

$A$ body with mass $2\, kg$ moves in one direction in the presence of a force which is described by the potential energy graph. If the body is released from rest at $x = 2\, m$,then its speed when it crosses $x = 5\, m$ is ................ $m/s$.

The potential energy graph of a particle is given. Find the corresponding force graph.

Is the work done by non-conservative forces always negative? Discuss.

Assertion $(A) :-$ If work done by the force depends on the path,then the force is said to be non-conservative.
Reason $(R) :-$ All conservative forces are central forces.
