Physics Question on Work-energy theorem

Conservative forces are defined as the force for which,

A

work done depends only on the initial and final positions.

B

work done depends on the initial and final positions and also on the path taken.

C

work done depends only on the path taken.

D

work done doponds only on the initial position.

Answer

work done depends only on the initial and final positions.

Explanation

Solution

Conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path followed but depends only on the initial and final positions.
