need d,e,f,g,h

You drop a 2.60 kg book to a friend who stands on the ground at distance D = 12.0 m below. If your friend's outstretched hands are at
distance d = 1.50 m above the ground (see the figure), (a) how much work Wg does the gravitational force do on the book as it drops to
her hands? (b) What is the change AU in the gravitational potential energy of the book-Earth system during the drop? If the
gravitational potential energy U of that system is taken to be zero at ground level, what is U (c) when the book is released and (d) when
it reaches her hands? Now take U to be 100 J at ground level and again find (e) Wg, (f) AU, (g) U at the release point, and (h) U at her
hands.
