You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The displacement vector is A +B = i + 2j + 3k + 3i + 5j + 8k = 4i + 7j + 11k.
\n" ); document.write( "The work is the dot product of the force vector and the displacement vector:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "F*(A + B) = ( 2i – 5j + 3k)*(4i + 7j + 11k) = 8 - 35 + 33 = 6 units.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The answer is a.
