Find the work done by the given force field for an object moving across a path that is the boundary of region bounded by the upper semicircle centered at the origin with radius 2 and the x-axis. Assume counterclockwise orientation. Hint: Use a theorem! You should be able to do this problem without too much computational work. F = ⟨2y, 4x + y^2⟩
