MCQ
Which force is dissipative force?
  • A
    Electrostatic force.
  • B
    Magnetic force.
  • C
    Gravitational force.
  • Frictional force.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Frictional force.
Frictional force is a non$-$conservative force because work done by it is dissipated $($wasted$)$ as heat energy. This is not the case with other forces.
