An example of non-conservation force is:
Correct answer: C. Frictional force
- A. Electric force
- B. Gravitational force
- C. Frictional force
- D. Magnetic force
Explanation
Only frictional force is non-conservative. The work done by this force depends upon the path taken and the energy is not conserved. All the others are conservative forces.

About Work and Energy
Work transfers energy when a force causes displacement, while kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy and power describe motion, position and the rate of energy transfer. The work-energy theorem links net work with change in kinetic energy, and efficiency accounts for energy losses rather than treating them as energy destruction.
