Work done against a resistive force
The best example is the force of friction. it opposes the objects motion and thus some work done by us to make a body move is dissipated as heat. …

Derivation of formula of potential energy by a conservative force [duplicate]
the formula for potential energy by a conservative force is given by:
$$ F = -\nabla U(r), $$
which in one dimension may be simplified to:
$$ F = -\frac{dU}{dx} .$$
My question is how is it derive …
