Question

Fan and medal!! Simple force problem, please explain.
A force acting on a particle moving in the xy plane is given by F = (2y)i + (x^2)j, where F is in newtons and x and y are in meters. The particle moves from the origin to a final position having coordinates x = 5.00m and y = 5.00m as shown in Figure P7.43. Calculate the work done by F on the particle as it moves along (a) the purple path, (b) the red path, and (c) the blue path. (d) Is F conservative or nonconservative? (e) explain your answer to part (d)
