Resistive forces are:

Correct answer: A. Non conservative

  • A. Non conservative
  • B. Conservative
  • C. Both A and B
  • D. None

Explanation

Non-conservative forces are those that do dissipate energy as an object moves through a closed path. The work done by a non-conservative force depends on the path taken by the object. Friction and air resistance are typical examples of non-conservative forces. Now, resistive forces, such as friction and air resistance, fall into the category of non-conservative forces. These forces lead to the dissipation of energy in the system as an object moves, and the work done by these forces is path dependent.

About Current Electricity

Steady current relates charge flow to potential difference, resistance and resistivity, including how temperature changes a conductor's resistance. Sources with internal resistance have terminal voltage below their emf when delivering current, and maximum power output occurs under a specific load condition rather than at zero resistance.
