If an object is moved by certain distance by the application of an external force along the direction of the force, then the force is said to perform some work.
Given, the force exerted on the object is
F=5+3y2
The formula to calculate the work done (W) by the force in moving the object from a position y1 to another position y2 can be written as
W=∫y1y2Fdy..........................(1)
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve to calculate the required work done by the force.
W===∫25(5+3y2)dy[5y+33y3]25132
