**Question 3:** A certain force applied on an object is depicted below.

(a) What is the work done by the force during the first \(10 \, \text{m}\)?

(b) What is the work done during the first \(15 \, \text{m}\)?

**Graph Description:**

- The graph is a force vs. distance graph showing the force (F) applied to an object over a range of 0 to 16 meters on the x-axis. The y-axis represents force in newtons (N), with a maximum value of 400 N.

- From 0 to 4 meters, the force increases linearly from 0 to 400 N.

- From 4 to 8 meters, the force remains constant at 400 N.

- From 8 to 12 meters, the force decreases linearly back to 0 N.

- From 12 to 14 meters, the force is negative and decreases linearly to -200 N.

- Finally, from 14 to 16 meters, the force increases back to 0 N.

The graph is used to calculate the work done by the force over specific distances by finding the area under the graph within specified intervals.
