Conservative vs. Non-conservative Forces
The fundamental theorem of calculus can be written as follows:
x2
df ( x)
x dx dx f ( x2 ) f ( x1 )
1
Why is this important? Because from it you can derive the
definition of conservative forces, which is broadly defined as:
df ( x)
dx dx f xi f x f xi 0
The circle is used to denote that the limits of integration occur on
a closed path, and thus the positions for evaluating the integral
(i.e. at the initial and final positions) occur at the same point.
9-1
Starting from the force equation, let’s re-write force as the
derivative of a scalar function, U, and evaluate the integral as the
derivative of U is integrated around a closed path.

Now let’s assume that the particle’s motion occurred around a
closed path (meaning that it eventually returned to its starting
position). Evaluating the integral

shows that the integral of gravitational force around a closed path is
zero. In other words, one can say that the state at which one can
find the particle under the action of gravity is independent the path
it takes between two points. Only the change in the scalar quantity
U is required to compute the change in state of its initial and final
positions. (i.e.)
U U x f U xi mgxf mgxi mgx f xi
Let’s now define the scalar quantity U as the potential energy.
9-3
Now let’s assume that the particle’s motion around a closed path
is due to the force by a spring…

The integral of the force due to a spring around a closed path is
zero, and thus a spring is a conservative force. If we were to
evaluate the potential energy of a spring at two different points:
1 2 1 2 1
U U x f U xi kx f kx i k x 2f xi2
2

The scalar quantity U is now called the potential energy of the spring.
9-4
Now let’s generalize this to 3-dimensional vector fields. Assume
the you have a force vector written in Cartesian coordinates.
F x, y, z Fx xˆ Fy yˆ Fz zˆ
U x, y, z
U x, y, z
U x, y, z

F x, y , z

zˆ
x
y
z
F x, y, z U x, y, z
where
rf

ri
ri
is denoted the gradient operator
F r r U r r U ri U r f
In order to test this concept, let’s look at the 3-D gravitational field...
9-5
The force of gravity can be written as the gradient of a scalar
function:
rˆ
1
F Gm1m2 2 Gm1m2 U r
r

U r Gm1m2
r
Which leads to an expression for the gravitational potential
energy defined purely as a scalar of the inverse distance away
from the source.

F r r U r r Gm1m2 ri Gm1m2 ri 0
Since the integral of the force over a closed path is zero, gravity
can be defined as a conservative force even in three dimensions.
9-6
What are some examples of non-conservative forces?
Friction and any processes that causes dissipation of heat.
Ff x Dx Dv
For example, the energy dissipated in going from position 1 to position 2,
assuming velocity is constant (this assumption does not matter, but just
facilitates the derivation), is given by:
x2
x2
Ff x dx Dvdx Dv x2 x1 D
x1
x2 x1 x
x1
t
2
x1
Likewise, the energy dissipated in going from position 2 back to position 1 is:
x1
x1
Ff x dx Dvdx Dv x1 x2 D
x2
x2
x1 x2 x
t
1
x2
Thus, the total energy dissipated in a closed path is:
2
2
x2 x1
x1 x2
D
Ff x dx Ff x dx Ff x dx D
x2
x1
0
t
t
which is not zero! Thus friction is a non-conservative force (i.e. is path dependent).

What about kinetic energy?

2
Thus the change in potential energy, U, due to movement in a conservative force
from position 1 to position 2 is re-allocated as kinetic energy, T. Another way to
say this is that the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy must always
remain constant. (i.e.) U 2 T2 U1 T1 const. This is a very powerful result
because now we only have to look at the initial and final states instead of
integrating through the entire path of motion.

We must find the position at which the acceleration of slider B is zero. This may be
an inflection point (i.e. where the velocity is also zero), it may be a point where the
velocity is at a local maxima, or where the velocity is at a global maximum.

So, what conditions leads to the acceleration of slider B equal to zero?

The condition that must be satisfied for the acceleration of slider B to equal
zero is shown below.

There are two solutions. One of them is: y A 0 , however this is an
inflection point, where the velocity is changing its direction. The other
solution is:
