Increases
What is the fundamental principle behind the transfer of energy from one object to another?
Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but only changes from one form to another or from one body to another
What type of force is responsible for the potential energy of an object?
Conservative force
What is the condition for the law of conservation of mechanical energy to be applicable?
When only conservative forces act on the system
What is the formula to calculate the gravitational potential energy of an object?
