Question 21

What do you mean by conservation of mechanical energy? State the condition when it holds.

Whenever there is an interchange between the potential and kinetic energy, the total mechanical energy remains constant. This is the principle of conservation of mechanical energy. The condition when it holds is that there should be no frictional forces.
