Calculus IV
Conservative forces are forces for which the work done in moving an object between two points is independent of the path taken. This means that the work done by a conservative force depends only on the initial and final positions of the object, not on the route it travels. These forces are associated with potential energy, allowing us to define a potential function where the force can be derived from the negative gradient of this function.
congrats on reading the definition of Conservative forces. now let's actually learn it.
