Concept

# Problem: The force acting on a particle is Fx=F0e−x/L. How much work does this force do as the particle moves along the x-axis from x = 0 to x = L?

###### FREE Expert Solution

Work done by the force is expressed as:

$\overline{){\mathbf{W}}{\mathbf{=}}{\mathbf{\int }}{\mathbf{F}}{\mathbf{d}}{\mathbf{x}}}$
