One can move the object in the negative direction of a gravitational force to increase its gravitational potential energy.
If the object is elastic, you can deform the object under tension or compression (stress) to increase its elastic potential energy.
If the object holds a magnetic charge you can increase its electrodynamic potential energy by subjecting it to a stronger magnetic field.
If the object holds a static charge, one can increase the amount of charged electric particles (static) to increase electrostatic potential energy, also known as electric potential.
One can heat an object to increase its thermal potential energy.
One can slow an object down to increase it's rest mass energy (also potential)
One can introduce charged leptons or down-type quarks into an atom, which by emitting W and Z bosons can increase the weak forces, which will increase nuclear potential forces of an atom (bit of a stretch)
Three examples:1) Anything falling under gravity. Gravitational potential energy is being transferred into kinetic energy, i.e. speed.2) In a turbine. Moving the rotors round on a turbine turns kinetic into electric energy.3) Electric cooking hobs. The electrical energy is dissipated to release thermal energy (heats up).
There are many ways. In many cases people can drive less by car pooling, taking mass transit, walking or riding a bike to work. In the home, using less air conditioning is a second way to conserve less energy.
1. Switch off lights ,fans and computers when not in use. 2. Recycling the school waste.

Increase the height of an object above the ground, as potential energy is directly proportional to height. Increase the mass of an object, as potential energy is also directly proportional to mass.
Potential and kinetic energy are alike in that they are both forms of energy that an object can possess. Potential energy is stored energy that an object has due to its position or condition, while kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its motion. Both types of energy can be converted into other forms of energy and are essential for the functioning of physical systems.
Two ways to decrease the gravitational potential energy of an object are to reduce its height above the reference point or reduce its mass. Both of these factors affect the gravitational potential energy because it is directly proportional to the height above the reference point and the mass of the object.
Yes, because potential energy is energy that is stored in an object. Kinetic energy is the energy that is associated with motion. So what you have to have is an object that is in motion but still has more energy that it has yet to convert into kinetic energy. A perfect example of this would be an object that is falling but has not yet hit the ground. This object would have kinetic energy because it is in motion. But it would also have potential energy because it has a ways yet to fall before it lands.
Potential and kinetic energy are similar in that they are both forms of energy that an object can possess. Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or condition, while kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Both types of energy can be converted into each other, and they are both measured in the same units, such as joules.
A wound clock spring has potential energy, which is energy stored in an object due to its position or state. As the spring unwinds, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, the energy of motion.
You can change the gravitational potential energy of an object by altering its height or the strength of the gravitational field it is in. Increasing the height or the strength of the gravitational field will increase the gravitational potential energy, while decreasing either will decrease the gravitational potential energy.
Potential energy can be reduced by lowering an object's height as gravity is the primary force responsible for potential energy. Decreasing the distance between two interacting charges or reducing the tension in a stretched spring are other ways to minimize potential energy. Additionally, dissipating energy through heat, sound, or light can also reduce potential energy in a system.
An object can store energy in the form of potential energy (stored energy due to its position or state), kinetic energy (energy due to its motion), or chemical energy (energy stored in chemical bonds).
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work in the future.
Here are some examples of how kinetic energy becomes potential energy: -when a rollercoaster car is at the bottom of a hill and going back up the next hill. -when a ball hits the floor and bounces back up. -climbing up a rock wall. Hope this was helpful!
GPE can be increased by lifting a heavier object i.e. increasing mass, or by lifting the object higher i.e. increasing height. This is described by E=mgh. Where m and h are the variables explained previously.
