The potential energy of configuration changes in x and y directions as `U=kxy`, where k is a positive constant. Find the force acting on the particle of the system as the function of x and y.

Answer» Substituting `U=kxy` in the expression
`F=-(delU)/(delx)hati-(delU)/(dely)hatj-(delU)/(delz)hatk`
we have `oversetrarrF=-k(yhati+xhatj)`
