Problem

A crate is pushed in the forward direction by a horizontal force that is 8.0 N8.0\,\text{N} for the first 3.0 m3.0\,\text{m} of travel and then 3.0 N3.0\,\text{N} for the next 2.0 m2.0\,\text{m}. Determine the total work done by the pushing force over the entire 5.0 m5.0\,\text{m} displacement.
