The gravitational force on a ( 10 mathrm{~kg} ) object at a distance ( r ) meters from the center of the Earth is ( F=frac{4 imes 10^{15}}{r^{2}} ) Newtons. Find the work done in moving the object from the surface of the Earth to a height ( 10^{6} ) meters above the surface. The radius of the Earth is ( 6.4 imes 10^{6} ) meters.
