explain a bit more.....

In this universe, work is done against a force.

When you raise a stone through height H, you are applying force MG on it.. and work is being done against the force of gravity. Now that work appears in the form of STORED gravitational potential energy!

Same way, work is done in a spring. You do work in compressing the spring, you do work against the stiffness of the spring, and it is stored in the form of elastic potential energy.

There is Electric potential energy too. When a charge moves against a field. If you push a proton towards a positive plate, you are doing work against electrostatic repulsion so it will be stored as Electric potential energy. Work done to push it = Electric potential energy stored in it.

Now figure out the question..
