g Suppose that an experiment determines that the amount of work required for a Force field to move a particle from the point ( 1 , 2 ) to the point ( − 5 , 3 ) along the curve C 1 is 1.2 J and the work done by the field in moving the particle along another curve C 2 between the same two points is 1.4 J. What can you say about the field, and why? g

Answer:

The field is non conservative field.

Explanation:

By definition of a conservative field the work done on any force if the force field is conservative is independent of the path through which the force displaces the particle.

In the given case as the initial and the final position of the particle is the same while as work done in both the paths is different thus we can infer that the force field is not conservative.
