Question: ( a ) A force F = ( 3 x + 4 y ) , where F is in newtons and x and y are

(a)
A force
F =(3x+4y),
where
F
is in newtons and x and y are in meters, acts on an object as the object moves in the x-direction from the origin to
x =5.21 m.
Find the work
W =
F dr
done by the force on the object (in J).
J
(b)
What If? Find the work
W =
F dr
done by the force on the object (in J) if it moves from the origin to (5.21 m,5.21 m) along a straight-line path making an angle of 45.0 with the positive x-axis.
J
