Question

You do work on something when you lift it against gravity. How does this work relate to gravitational potential energy? If the lifted object is released, what becomes of this energy? Be sure to define all terms that you use.

Answer 1

Answer 2

The higher something is the more potential energy it's going to have because \(PE=mgh\)

Answer 3

When the object is released, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
