The potential energy of a system increases if work is done:
ABy the system against a conservative force
BBy a conservative force on the system
CBy a non-conservative force on the system
DNone of these
✓ Correct Answer: A — By the system against a conservative force
When the system works against a conservative force (like gravity), that work is stored as potential energy.
