Explanation / Answer

Given,

F = 22.7 N ; theta = 37 deg

A)s = 5 i

We know that

W = F d cos(theta)

W = 22.7 x 5 x cos37 = 90.645 J

Hence, W = 90.65 J

b)s = -6 j

W = F d cos(theta)

W = 22.7 x -6 x sin37 = - 82.96 J

Hence, W = -82.96 J

c)s = -2 i + 4 j

W = F d cos(theta)

W = 22.7 (-2 cos37 + 4 sin37) = 18.39 J

Hence, W = 18.39 N
