Question

A particle is subject to a force Fx that varies with position as shown in the following figure.

(a) Find the work done by the force on the particle as it moves from x = 0 to x = 3.00 m.

(b) Find the work done by the force on the particle as it moves from x = 5.00 m to x = 6.00 m.

(c) Find the work done by the force on the particle as it moves from x = 13.0 m to x = 15.0 m.

(d) What is the total work done by the force over the distance x = 0 to x = 15.0 m?

please help

Explanation / Answer

a) area = 0.5*3*1.75 = 2.625 J

b) area = 3*1 = 3 J

c)area = 0.5*2*1 = 1 J

d) total area = 0.5*5*3 + 3*5 + 0.5*5*3 = 30 J
