Answer:
a). A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.
TRUE
Because there is no energy loss in presence of conservative forces so energy conversion in two ways are possible.
b). A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.
TRUE
negative gradient of potential energy is equal to conservative force
c). A non-conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.
FALSE
here energy is lost against non-conservative forces
d). The work done by a conservative force depends on the path taken.
FALSE
work done by conservative force is independent of path
e). The work done by a non-conservative force depends on the path taken.
TRUE
work done by non conservative forces depends on path.
f). A potential energy function can be specified for a non-conservative force.
FALSE
It is not defined for non conservative forces

<u>Electric Circuits</u>
Suppose we have a resistive-only electric circuit. The relation between the current I and the voltage V in a resistance R is given by the Ohm's law:
(a) The electromagnetic force of the battery is and its internal resistance is
. Knowing the equivalent resistance of the headlights is
, we can compute the current of the circuit by using the Kirchhoffs Voltage Law or KVL:
Solving for i
i=2.28\ A
The potential difference across the headlight bulbs is
(b) If the starter motor is operated, taking an additional 35 Amp from the battery, then the total load current is 2.28 A + 35 A = 37.28 A. Thus the output voltage of the battery, that is the voltage that the bulbs have is
