the work done in a conservative system ___

The work done in a conservative system is independent of the path taken and depends only on the initial and final positions of an object.

bot I need to know the amount of force not the direction.

In a conservative system, the work done depends on the difference in potential energy between the initial and final positions of an object, rather than the force applied. The amount of force exerted during the process does not directly determine the work done in a conservative system.
