What is the work of the force f (6.0n)(4.0n)j(-2.0n)k when the object moves from an initial point with coordinates (1.5 m, 3.0m, -4.5 m) to a final point with coordinates (4.0m, -2.5 m, -3.0m)? ( c) (d) 35.j (a) 35j (b) 10j (c) - 10j (e) can not tell since the path along which the object moves is not identified.

option (c) - 10 j

Explanation:

F = (6 i + 4 j - 2 k) N

r1 = (1.5, 3, -4.5) m = (1.5 i + 3j - 4.5 k) m

r2 = (4, -2.5, - 3) m = (4 i - 2.5 j - 3 k) m

displacement, r = r2 - r1 = ( 2.5 i - 5.5 j + 1.5 k) m

Work done is defined as the dot product of force vector and teh displacement vector.

W = (6 i + 4 j - 2 k) . ( 2.5 i - 5.5 j + 1.5 k)

W = 15 - 22 - 3 = - 10 J

it becomes positively charged by charging it
