Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Kinetic Energy and Work: Problem 8

An ice block floating in a river is pushed through a displacement \(\vec{d} = (15\text{ m})\hat{i} - (12\text{ m})\hat{j}\) along a straight embankment by rushing water, which exerts a force \(\vec{F} = (210\text{ N})\hat{i} - (150\text{ N})\hat{j}\) on the block. How much work does the force do on the block during the displacement?
