The gravitational field in a region is given by the equation $E = (5\hat{i} + 12\hat{j}) \text{ N/kg}$. If a particle of mass $2 \text{ kg}$ is moved from the origin $(0, 0)$ to the point $(12 \text{ m}, 5 \text{ m})$ in this region, the change in gravitational potential energy is: (in $\text{ J}$)

Two heavy spheres each of mass $100 \; kg$ and radius $0.10 \; m$ are placed $1.0 \; m$ apart on a horizontal table. What is the gravitational force and potential at the mid-point of the line joining the centres of the spheres? Is an object placed at that point in equilibrium? If so,is the equilibrium stable or unstable?

The change in potential energy when a body of mass $m$ is raised to a height $n R$ from the earth's surface is (where $R$ is the radius of the earth).

The particles $A$ and $B$ of mass $m$ each are separated by a distance $r$. Another particle $C$ of mass $M$ is placed at the midpoint of $A$ and $B$. Find the work done in moving $C$ to a point equidistant $r$ from $A$ and $B$ without acceleration. ($G$ is the gravitational constant and only gravitational interaction between $A, B$ and $C$ is considered.)

$A$ body of mass $m$ rises to a height $h = R/5$ from the earth's surface,where $R$ is the earth's radius. If $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity at the earth's surface,the increase in potential energy is:

If $W_1, W_2$ and $W_3$ represent the work done in moving a particle from $A$ to $B$ along three different paths $1, 2$ and $3$ (as shown in the figure) in the gravitational field of the point mass '$m$',find the correct relation between '$W_1$','$W_2$' and '$W_3$'.
