The Work Done Against Gravity 3. The magnitude of the force of Earth's gravity on an object of mass m is given by F(x) = m a(x) = GmME R 1 (1+x/RE)² When a force F(x) is applied to an object, the work done by the force is defined as W = [² FC F(x) dx where the object begins at position x = a and ends at position x = b. (a) Write the force of gravity F(x) as a power series. (Hint: Use the power series for a(x) from problem 2.) (b) Determine the work done against the force of gravity from x = 0 to x = h as a series by integrating the power series F(x). h is the final height of the object. (c) The work done against gravity by moving the object from x = 0 to x = h is called the potential energy, U. Determine the first order Taylor polynomial, U≈ T₁(h), GME for the potential energy. Simplify the constant just as you did for part (f) R²/ of problem 2. This formula for U should look familiar if you have taken Physics I.
