6. Work and Energy Work Definitions: This is line integral Example: Find work done by a force on a particle that is moving from the origin to the point P=(1,1) along three shown below paths if the force is a) From (0,0) to (0,1) to (1,1): b) From (0,0) to (1,1) along straight line, so that x=y: c) From (0,0) to (1,1) along a quarter circle centered at (0,1): 1
