We do two examples of computing the work a vector field does moving an object along a parametrized path, demonstrating how to calculate the work done with a vector line integral as a four step process. (Multivariable Calculus Unit 6 Lecture 8)
- The sign of work depends on the alignment of the path with the vector field.
- For computation, we parameterize the path, evaluate the vector field along it, compute the velocity vector, and set up the integral.
