| Sep 17, 2023 at 7:19 | comment | added | user266637 | @BobD My question is more like, can there be force fields which satisfy the second condition without satisfying the first? And if this is not possible then the condition 1 is superfluous. As Adriano Del Vincio said in his answer that we can have time varying force fields which do not satisfy the first condition but they do satisfy the second condition at any fixed time.Considering a fixed time to check the second conditon is kinda logical otherwise consider this... the same path from A to B will lead to different work done on the particle depending on how fast the particle goes from A to B. | |
