Factorials apply only to nonnegative integers but can be extended to complex numbers with positive real parts using the Gamma function, \(\Gamma(n) = \int_0^\infty e^{-x}x^{n-1}dx\).

The natural logarithm can be expanded into a series, yielding \(\ln(1+x) = \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{k+1}x^k}{k}\).

Newton's mutual attraction force for masses \(m_1\), \(m_2\) is \(F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{d^2}\), where \(d\) is the distance between them and \(G\) is the gravitational constant.
