1. When work is done on an object, energy is stored in it as potential energy, such as gravitational, elastic, or chemical potential energy, depending on the nature of the work and the object's properties.

  2. The work done by gravity when raising a block from position A to position B is the same for both paths, as it depends only on the vertical height difference h and not on the specific path taken.

  3. Energy is transferred to a rubber band as work is done to stretch it, converting mechanical energy into elastic potential energy stored within the rubber band's stretched state.
