To find the gravitational potential at the point (2, 1) given that the gravitational potential is zero at the origin (0, 0), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Gravitational Field The gravitational field is given by: \[ \mathbf{E} = -\hat{i} - 2y^2 \hat{j} \] This means: - The x-component of the gravitational field \( E_x = -x \) - The y-component of the gravitational field \( E_y = -2y^2 \) ...
