In order to move satellite from R1


to R2 there must be work done
against the force of gravity.

𝑊 = 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐹𝐺 − 𝑅 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑝ℎ


𝑅=𝑅2

𝑊 = ∫ 𝐹𝐺 𝑑𝑅

However, 𝑊 = ∆𝐸𝑇= ∆𝐸𝑔
(∆Ek is negligible)

∆𝐸𝑔 = − − (− )

𝐸𝑔2 − 𝐸𝑔1 = − − (− )

From this we can say

𝐸𝑔 = −

Let’s Understand The Negative

𝐹𝐺 → 0
∴ 𝐸𝑔∞ → 0

Therefore, Eg does increase as R increases!
