conservative forces and non conservative forces with example
Answers
A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the taken path.[1] Equivalently, if a particle travels in a closed loop, the total work done (the sum of the force acting along the path multiplied by the displacement) by a conservative force is zero.
ex:gravitational force
A force is a push or a pull, therefore, forces influence motion. Some forces visibly change the speed or direction of motion. Other types of forces convert large scale motion that's big enough to see with the naked eye or optical microscope (macroscopic motion) to motion at the atomic scale (microscopic motion). These forces are called non-conservative forces. A moving car, bouncing ball, or crawling insect would all exhibit macroscopic motion. Sound, thermal, and light energy are all examples of microscopic motion. Therefore, a non-conservative force converts macroscopic motion into microscopic motion.
Answer:
Gravitational force is an example of a conservative force, while frictional force is an example of a non-conservative force. Other examples of conservative forces are: force in elastic spring, electrostatic force between two electric charges, and magnetic force between two magnetic poles.
