A CD case slides along a floor in the positive direction of an x axis while an applied force Fa acts on the case. The force is directed along the x axis and has the x component Fax = 9x – 3x2, with x in meters and Fax in Newton’s. The case starts at rest at the position x = 0, and it moves until it is at rest.
(a) Plot the work Fa does on the case as a n of x.
(b) At what position is the work maximum, and
(c) What is that maximum value?
(d) At what position has the work decreased to zero?
