Answer:

True

Explanation:

- A conservative force is a force whose work done does not depend on the path taken, but only on the final and starting point.

- The mechanical energy of an object is defined as the sum of the kinetic energy (K) and the potential energy (U): E = K + U

- The law of conservation of energy states that, in case only conservative forces are acting on the object, the mechanical energy of the object E is conserved

- In case non-conservative forces are acting on the object, the mechanical energy is no longer constant. An example of non-conservative force is the force of friction: when the force of friction is acting on a car in motion, the car is slowed down by the effect of the force, losing some of its kinetic energy, K. If the car is travelling on a flat road, then its potential energy U does not change: this means that the mechanical energy of the car, E, is decreasing, so it is no longer conserved.

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

B. Technician B only

Explanation:

An oscilloscope can be used to check the output signal of an optical sensor. The oscilloscope has the functioning of viewing the results in the form of waveform and its time scale settings can be altered to meet the requirements of the results.

A voltmeter cannot be <u>directly</u> used to monitor the output signal of an optical sensor. But a <u>digital multi-meter</u> can be used to check an optical sensor if the digital multi-meter is set on AC - Volt reading mode.
