A particle moves in x-y plane in figure under the influence of a friction force with magnitude 3.00N and acting in the direction opposite to the particle's displacement. Calculate the work done by the friction force on particle as it moves along the following closed paths: (a) path OA followed by AC and return path AO, (b) path OA followed by AC and the return path CO, (c) path OC followed by the return path CO, and (d) each of your three answers should be non-zero. What is the significant of this observation?
