$A$ body constrained to move along the $z$-axis of a coordinate system is subject to a constant force $F$ given by $F = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k} \text{ N}$,where $\hat{i}, \hat{j}, \hat{k}$ are unit vectors along the $x, y,$ and $z$-axes of the system respectively. What is the work done (in $J$) by this force in moving the body a distance of $4 \text{ m}$ along the $z$-axis?

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $16$
  • C
    $8$

Consider a particle on which constant forces $F_{1}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k} \text{ N}$ and $F_{2}=4 \hat{i}-5 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k} \text{ N}$ act together, resulting in a displacement from position $r_{1}=20 \hat{i}+15 \hat{j} \text{ cm}$ to $r_{2}=7 \hat{k} \text{ cm}$. The total work done on the particle is:

$A$ force $F = (5 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}) \text{ N}$ acts on a body and produces a displacement $s = (6 \hat{i} - 5 \hat{j} + 3 \hat{k}) \text{ m}$. The work done by the force is: (in $\text{ J}$)
