Homework Statement
A force F = (4.37xi + 3.01yj) N acts on an object as it moves in the x direction from the origin to x = 5.06 m. Calculate the work done on the object by the force.
Homework Equations
dot product
The Attempt at a Solution
i took the dot product, FxDx+FyDy
since there is no y component for the distance i assumed it would just be FxDx but its not and now i have no idea where to go.
Unless I am just completely screwing up the math but i don't think i am considering its multiplication...
(4.37)(5.06) = 22.11 Nm?
