Abstract
We show a formal result of the longitudinal force acting on a moving potent ial. The potential can be velocity dependent, which appears in various inte resting physical systems, such as electrons in the presence of a magnetic f lux line, or phonons scattering off a moving vortex. By using the phase-shi ft analysis, we are able to show the equivalence between the adiabatic pert urbation theory and the kinetic theory for the longitudinal force in the di lute gas limit.
