--------------
Concepts covered

In the chapter initially kinetic energy is discussed. The potential energy is explained in terms of change in kinetic energy. In a system of two particles kinetic energy is decreased as the system moves from configuration 1 to configuration 2.As it comes back to configuration 1, the kinetic energy once again increases. This is due to potential energy into which the decrease in kinetic energy changes. Then potential energy and various forms of potential energy are explained.

In this context, concepts of conservative and nonconservative forces are introduced.

If the work done by a force depends only on the initial and final states and not on the path taken, it is called a conservative force. Force of gravity, Coulomb force, and the force of spring are conservative forces.

The force of friction is nonconservative because the work done by the friction is not zero in a round trip.
