The force of gravity (outside the Earth) attracting a mass m is proportional to the mass m and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the centre of the Earth. Find the work done in moving a mass that weighs 1 lb at the surface of the Earth to 10 miles above the surface. Assume the radius of the Earth is 4,000 mi. At the Earth's surface, a force of 1 lb is required to lift a mass of 1 lb.
◦ 51,420  ft ∙ lb
◦ 52,668  ft ∙ lb
◦ 48,193  ft ∙ lb
◦ 50,327  ft ∙ lb
◦ none of the above

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
