An object slides with constant velocity across a horizontal sheet of ice. Friction is negligible. A constant horizontal force of 2.1 N is then applied to the object as shown. [Figure 17.1] A short time after applying the force, the object reaches point X at a displacement of 4.0 m from its position when the force was first applied. What is the work done by the force on the object as it travels to point X?
