Which of the following forces are conservative? If conservative, find the potential energy U(r). (a) Fx = ayz + bx

Question:

Which of the following forces are conservative? If conservative, find the potential energy U(r).
(a) Fx = ayz + bx + c, Fy = axz + bz, Fz = axy + by.
(b) Fx = - ze-x, F, = In z, Fx = e–x +y/z.
(c) F = era/r(a, b, c are constants).
