Raising an object increases its potential energy due to its elevated position relative to the ground. This potential energy can then be converted into kinetic energy as the object falls, enabling it to do work.

Raising an object to a certain height increases its gravitational potential energy. This stored energy can then be converted into kinetic energy or other forms of work when the object falls or is released, enabling it to exert forces and cause displacements, thus demonstrating its capability to do work.
