Question

When a particle is a distance r from the origin, its potential energy function is given by the equation U(r)=kr, where k is a constant and r=x2+y2+z2−−−−−−−−−−√
(a) What are the SI units of k?

Part B (b) Find a mathematical expression in terms of x, y, and z for the y component of the force on the particle.

Part C (c) If U=3.00 J when the particle is 2.00 m from the origin, find the numerical value of the y component of the force on this particle when it is at the point (-1.00 m, 2.00 m, 3.00 m).
