3) Energy Density in a Newtonian Gravitational Field. Consider assembling a system of N particles of mass MA assigned at positions TA, A = 1, ..., N. The Newtonian potential energy of the system W is the potential energy of all the particles found by bringing them one by one from infinity into the potential of the particles already assembled. Show that this is 1 W Σ GMA MB 2 TA-TB A+B and that the corresponding formula for a continuum distribution of mass with density (T) is 1 1 GuT) (7') W = } /** [ 136 ' G :- 7) (). d’x u(T)$(7).
