9. Work & Energy / Net Work & Work-Energy Theorem / Problem 9

The force applied to an object moving in the horizontal direction varies with the position, as shown in the figure below. Calculate the work done on the object i) between 0 cm and 2.5 cm, ii) between 2.5 cm and 10 cm, and iii) between 10 cm and 15 cm.
