friction

Acc to my understanding W1 is work done by friction in moving from a to c' to b W2 is work done by friction in moving from a to c to b Clearly the path length acb is larger Since friction is a non conservative force it depends upon the path length . Therefore w2>w1 Toppr site says otherwise and coaching module says w1=w2

W1=w2 use Work energy theorem

but friction is non conservative so it should depend on path taken, w2>w1

Vertical plane h Har jagh normal same thodi hai Directly friction nhi nikal sakte Wd by frction + wd by mg = k2-k1=0 Dono hi case m A to B jara hai to work done by mg constant hai Islie firction ka work dono case me same hoga

k2 and k1 is kinetic energy final and initial respectively ? if yes then how do we know particle has same velocity upon reaching b through 2 diff paths

It is the difference in kinetic energy Initial bhi velocity zero h Finally bhi zero
