Question

Suppose an object of mass m is raised to
a height h above the ground. What is the
amount of work done? What happens to the
object's potential energy in the process?​

Answer 1

Answer:

So if an object of mass m is raised through a height h, the work done on the object is equal to mgh, and so this amount of energy is transferred to the object. (Notice that this equation is identical to the one describing an object falling under gravity, Equation 7.)

Answer 2

Answer:

mgh and the potential energy becomes kinetic energy as it rises then when it stops at the height h it becomes potential energy once again.
