Question: An object has several forces acting on it. One of these forces is F = axyi, a force in the x-direction whose magnitude depends on

An object has several forces acting on it. One of these forces is F = axyi, a force in the x-direction whose magnitude depends on the position of the object, with a = 2.S0 N/m2. Calculate the work done on the object by this force for the following displacements of the object:
(a) The object starts at the point x = 0,
y = 3.00 m and moves parallel to the x-axis to the point x = 2.00 m, y = 3.00 m.
(b) The object starts at the point x = 200 m, y = 0 and moves in the y-direction to the point x = 200 m, y = 3.00 m.
(c) The object starts at the origin and moves on the line y = 1.5x to the point x = 2.00 m, y = 3.00 m.
