Potetial energy is the energy an object has because of its position or location, or its energy of position.
The potential energy has increased by exactly the amount of work done on the book.
On top of a shelf because it would have a higher GPE (gravitational potential energy). It has the "potential" (ability) to fall due to the force of gravity in this context.
It is the same - work done is weight x height and potential energy change is the same at the new height
The higher something is, the more potential energy it has stored.
Gradient of potential energy gives negative force at that point.
The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
Hold a rock in the air ... it has potential energy. Drop it ... the potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. It hits the ground and stop ... the kinetic energy will be converted into thermal energy. Note that the total energy in each case is the same.

A bookshelf has gravitational potential energy.
There is no direct relationship because the potential energy of the book on the shelf is defined relative to an arbitrary base line at which the potential energy would be zero. The work done in raising the book is the increase in the potential energy of book from however much PE it had in its previous location - for example, on a lower shelf.
It is the same - work done is weight x height and potential energy change is the same at the new height
Direct (double the height to double the potential energy).
Both are mechanical force.
Gravitational + Potential = 100 If you have 67 J of potential energy your gravitational energy would be 33 J.

The higher something is, the more potential energy it has stored.
They are the same; work W= force F times distance h = mass m times acceleration of gravity (g) times height (h) = mgh=potential energy
Potential energy is directly proportional to height.
The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects. Thus, there is a gravitational potential energy between Earth and Moon, or between a rock that you lift up on the Moon, and the Moon.The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects.
