A force F=-k(yi^+xj^) where k is a positive constant, acts on a particle moving in the XY-plane. Starting from the origin, the particle is taken along the positive X-axis to the point (a, 0) and then parallel to the Y-axis to the point (a, a). The total work done by the force on the particle is [AIIMS 2017]

Detailed Solution
Given, F=-k(yi^+xj^)As, work done, W=∫F·drSo, W'=-k∫(yi^+xj^)·(dxi^+dyj^)⇒ W=-k∫(ydx+xdy)⇒W=-k∫(0,0)(a,a)d(xy) ∵ydx+xdy=∫d(xy)Hence, W=-k(xy)(0,0)(a,a)=-ka2
