Step 1
According to the given information, it is required to calculate the work done by the force field
F(x,y)=4yi + 2xj
moving along the particle along a circle x2+y2=1
from(0,1)to(1,0)
Step 2
The work done can be calculated as:
work done = CF.dr
Step 3
Solving further to get:
CF.dr
r(t)=(sint)i+(cost)jfor0tπ2
r(t)=(cost)i+(sint)j
CF.dr=0π2((4cost)i+(2sint)j).((cost)i+(sint)j)dt
=0π2(4cos2t2sin2t)dt
=0π2(6cos2t2)dt
=π2
Therefore, the total work done by the force field is π2.
