S has a unit normal k, so we need the k component of curl F only

curl F (k direction) = (3z-z) = 2z at z=3, = 6

So INT_C F. dr = INT_S curlF. dS = INT:A curl F. (k) dA,

= INT6 dA = 6A

The circle (S) hasa radius R=4, so A = piR^2 = 16pi

Work = 6*16pi = 96pi (stokes gives Counterclockwise, so we use + k, clockwise, - k, or simply factor by - 1)
