Question
**Problem: Work Done by a Force**

(a) A force \(\mathbf{F} = (6x \hat{\mathbf{i}} + 5y \hat{\mathbf{j}})\), where \(\mathbf{F}\) is in newtons and \(x\) and \(y\) are in meters, acts on an object as the object moves in the x-direction from the origin to \(x = 4.80\, \text{m}\). Find the work \(W = \int \mathbf{F} \cdot d\mathbf{r}\) done by the force on the object (in Joules).

- **Solution:**
  - Answer: \(\boxed{69.12 \, \text{J}}\)

(b) **What If?** Find the work \(W = \int \mathbf{F} \cdot d\mathbf{r}\) done by the force on the object (in Joules) if it moves from the origin to \((4.80 \, \text{m}, 4.80 \, \text{m})\) along a straight-line path making an angle of \(45.0^\circ\) with the positive x-axis.

- **Solution:**
  - User provided answer: \(\boxed{69.12} \, \text{(Incorrect)}\) 

Note: Consider breaking the force into components corresponding to the direction of movement for accurate calculations.
