Two objects have masses of #42 MG# and #26 MG#. How much does the gravitational potential energy between the objects change if the distance between them changes from #8 m# to #9 m#?

We will use the formula
Explanation:
We will first calculate the potential energy at 8m
so
the change is positive because the distance gets bigger
(I assumed MG is megagrams.)
