1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
You are given Force as a function of distance (F vs x). Find the change in kinetic energy from $x=a $ to $x=b$.
2. Relevant equations
see attempt solution
conservation of energy equations
3. The attempt at a solution
Since F = -dU/dx we get the integral of F = U.
Then do U(b)-U(a) to get the answer.
Is this right?
