Question: Two objects interact with each other and with no other objects. Initially object A has a speed of 5 m s and object B has

Two objects interact with each other and with no other objects. Initially object A has a speed of 5ms and object B has a speed of 10ms. In the course of their motion they return to their initial positions. Then A has a speed of 4ms and B has a speed of 7ms. We can conclude:
mechanical energy was increased by nonconservative forces
mechanical energy was decreased by conservative forces
the potential energy changed from the beginning to the end of the trip
mechanical energy was increased by conservative forces
mechanical energy was decreased by nonconservative forces
Two objects interact with each other and with no
