Introduction

In this lab you will study line integrals and use them to compute the amount of work done by moving objects in a gravitational field.

Objectives

The objective of this lab is to gain experience working with line integrals and to gain intuition about the physical quantity called "work."

You will need to invoke Maple for this lab.
