The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that:

• The total energy in a closed system decreases over time.

• The total mechanical energy (kinetic + potential) in a closed system remains constant, assuming no non-conservative forces are acting.

• Kinetic energy is always larger than potential energy.

• Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy but not vice versa.
