Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Kinetic Energy and Work: Problem 40

A can of sardines is made to move along an x axis from \( x = 0.25 \text{ m} \) to \( x = 1.25 \text{ m} \) by a force with a magnitude given by \( F = \exp(-4x^2) \), with \( x \) in meters and \( F \) in newtons. (Here exp is the exponential function.) How much work is done on the can by the force?
