Two objects have masses of #36 MG# and #18 MG#. How much does the gravitational potential energy between the objects change if the distance between them changes from #81 m# to #27 m#?
Given that in attractive interactions the potential energy decreases if the objects are brought closer together, the negative sign denotes a decrease in potential energy of that magnitude.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.

- A model train, with a mass of #2 kg#, is moving on a circular track with a radius of #4 m#. If the train's kinetic energy changes from #16 j# to #0 j#, by how much will the centripetal force applied by the tracks change by?
- A model train, with a mass of #12 kg#, is moving on a circular track with a radius of #9 m#. If the train's rate of revolution changes from #6 Hz# to #8 Hz#, by how much will the centripetal force applied by the tracks change by?
- A model train with a mass of #4 kg# is moving along a track at #3 (cm)/s#. If the curvature of the track changes from a radius of #4 cm# to #12 cm#, by how much must the centripetal force applied by the tracks change?
