Homework Equations

I know that
W = Fd where here it is
W = F * $${\rightarrow}{\}$$AB

Also, that

(im sorry, this looks really ugly)
$$\stackrel{v\rightarrow}{}$$ = ||v||(cos$$\alpha$$$$\stackrel{i\rightarrow}{}$$+sin$$\alpha$$$$\stackrel{j\rightarrow}{}$$)
||v|| = sqrt(a²+b²)

The Attempt at a Solution

I get stuck fairly quickly on this problem, my professor never went on it in class.

using the second equation, I get to the point of

v = (sqrt13)(cos+sin)

I am not sure what goes into the cos and sin portion of the problem, I am assuming it has something to do with the coordinates it gives, but other than that, I have no idea.

Ok, so your force is 5lbs in the direction of 3i+2j, so what is your force vector F?

The displacement is from (0,0) to (0,4), what is you displacement vector d equal to?
