Can work done by a non - conservative force be positive ?

Underline the correct alterntaive: a) when a conservative force does positivie work on a body, the potential energy of the body increase/decreases/remains unaltered. work done by a body against friction always results in a loss of its kinetic /potential energy. c) The rate of change of total momentum of a many-particle system is proportional to the external force/ sum of the internal forces on the system. d) In an inelastic collision of two bodies, the quantities which do not change after the collision are the total kinetic energy/total linear momentum/total enregy of the system of two bodies.

    Point out the correct alternative : (a) When a conservative force does positive work on a body , the potential energy of the body increases // decreases // remains unaltered. (b) Work done by a body against friction always result in a loss of its kinetic // potential energy. (c) The rate of change of total momentum of a many particle system is proportional to the external force // sum of the internal forces of the system. (d) In an inelastic collision of two bodies, the quantities which do not change after the collision are the total kinetic energy // total linear momentum // total energy of the system ot two bodies.
