is this work done by magnetic force equals work done by friction?but friction os non conservative

work done by magnetic force is always zero as it is perpendicular to the velocity and it is also evident from the fact that the magnetic force does not increase the kinetic energy of the charged particle thus doing ZERO work on it. But for friction it is not the case and the work done is -ve as it is directed opposite to the velocity of an object.
