Conservation and Non-conservation energy

In summary, conservation energy refers to the principle that energy cannot be created or destroyed, while non-conservation energy can be created or destroyed. The conservation of energy is important because it is a fundamental law of nature and has practical applications in everyday life. Energy can be conserved through processes such as transformation, transfer, and storage. Energy cannot be converted from non-conservation to conservation, but non-conservation energy can be converted into conservation energy through certain processes. Examples of conservation energy include mechanical, thermal, and chemical energy, while non-conservation energy includes electrical, nuclear, and gravitational potential energy.

My Teacher question is
if the potential depends explicity on time t and/or on velocity v then energy of particle is not conserverd. Explain and prove.

hmm I am not too sure how right this is but

any force crossed with the del operator equals 0 if a force is conservative

which means it depends on position explicitly?
...hope that helps somehow
 

1. What is the difference between conservation and non-conservation energy?

Conservation energy refers to the principle that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can only be converted from one form to another. Non-conservation energy, on the other hand, is energy that is not subject to this principle and can be created or destroyed.

2. Why is conservation of energy important?

The conservation of energy is important because it is a fundamental law of nature and is necessary for the functioning of the universe. It also has practical applications in everyday life, such as in the design and operation of energy-efficient devices and systems.

3. How is energy conserved in different systems?

Energy can be conserved in different systems through various processes such as energy transformation, energy transfer, and energy storage. For example, in a closed system, energy can be transformed from one form to another without any loss, thus conserving the total amount of energy in the system.

4. Can energy be converted from non-conservation to conservation?

No, energy cannot be converted from non-conservation to conservation. The conservation of energy is a fundamental law of nature and cannot be violated. However, non-conservation energy can be converted into conservation energy through processes such as nuclear fusion or fission.

5. What are some examples of conservation and non-conservation energy?

Examples of conservation energy include mechanical energy, thermal energy, and chemical energy. Non-conservation energy includes electrical energy, nuclear energy, and gravitational potential energy, as they can be created or destroyed under certain conditions.
