Step 1 
By definition 
The line integral along a path is the work done along that path.
That is Work done =CFdr 
Step 2 
Note that dr= dx i+ dy j 
Given that F(x,y)=x2i+yexj 
Therefore, Work done =C(x2i+yexj)( dx i+ dy j) 
Work done Cx2 dx +yex dy  
Step 3 
Given that C:x=y2+1 
Therefore, y=x1  and   dy = dx 2x1 
In order to completely express an integral in terms of x, swap out the values of y and dy.
Work done =Cx2 dx +x1ex dx 2x1 
Work done =Cx2+12ex dx  
Since x increases from 1 to 2 as we proceed from (1,0) to (2,1), we shall integrate from 1 to 2 with respect to x.
Work done =12x2+12ex dx  
=[x33+12ex]12 
=[233+12e2][133+12e1] 
=83+12e213e2 
=73+e2e2

Call the parabola P, parameterized by r(y)=y2+1,y with 0y1. Then the work done by f(x,y) along P is
Pf(x,y)dr=y=0y=1f(x(y),y)dr(y)dydy
=01(y2+1)2,yey2+12y,1dy
=01(2y5+4y3+2y+yey2+1dy=73e2+e22

Step-by-step explanation:
By definition:
Work done along the path is the line integral along that path denoted as:
Work done =CFdr
Note: dr=dxi+dyj
Given that: F(x,y)=x2i+yexj
F(x,y) dot product with dr=x2dx+yexdy
Work done =C(x2dx+yexdy) Eq1
Given that CL y=x1
dy=dx2x1
Replace the value of y and dy in Eq 1
Workdone =C(x2+ex2)dx
Limits of x are 1 to 2 respectively
Workdone =12(x2+ex2)dx
=(x33+ex2)12
Evaluate limits to obtain
Work Done =73+e2e2
