How is potential energy related to the work done on a body against gravity?
How is potential energy related to the work done on a body against gravity?
- The work done is equal to the kinetic energy stored in the object.
- The work done is stored as potential energy in the object. (correct)
- The work done is unrelated to the object's height.
- The work done is proportional to the object's weight.
