- Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An object moves from position \( r_{1} \) to position \( r_{2} \) under a conservative force field \( \vec{F} \). The work done by the force is \( W=-\int_{r_{1}}^{r_{2}}\vec{F}\cdot d\vec{r} \).
Statement II Any object moving from one location to another location can follow infinite number of paths. Therefore, the amount of work done by the object changes with the path it follows for a conservative force.
