<h3>What is the work done?</h3>
We know that all over the earth is a large gravitational field. If an object is placed at a given height, the kind of energy that the object would be said to possess at that height is the gravitational potential energy. This is the kind of energy that a body would have because it is found at a given height on the earth surface.
Now, we know that gravity does some work on the book as it found to be at a position of about 2.2 on top of the shelf. The work that is done by the force of gravity on the book is obtained as;
