1.Sol: Positive work done by a conservative force
always decreases the potential energy
W U
    U (W) ( ve) ve
2.Sol: Among the given forces, force of friction
is a non-conservative force whereas all other
forces are conservative forces.
3.Sol: In case of non-conservative forces, the
work done is dissipated as heat, sound etc, i.e.,
it does not increase the potential energy.
4.Sol: Conceptual


5.Sol: (^) W U
6.Sol: Conceptual
7.Sol: Gravitational force is a conservative force
and work done against it does not depend on
the path.
8.Sol: Conceptual
9.Sol: Any constant force is a conservative force.
10.Sol: If the force
