Physics · Work, Energy and Power
Given below are two statements: Statement I: An object moves from position r1 to position r2 under a conservative force field F. The work done by the conservative force is given by W = ∫r1r2 F · dr. Statement II: A conservative force field is path-independent; hence, the amount of work done in moving an object between two points depends only on the initial and final positions and not on the path followed. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- 1Both Statement I and Statement II are true
- 2Statement I is false but Statement II is true
- 3Statement I is true but Statement II is false✓
- 4Both Statement I and Statement II are false
