Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).
Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.
After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.
To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:
147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.
Answer:
Galileo thought that a ball, rolling or sliding down a hill without friction, would run up to the same height on an opposite hill.
Suppose that the opposite hill was horizontal. Would the ball's motion continue forever along the tangent, or forever parallel to the Earth's surface
Galileo's conclusion from this thought experiment was that no force is needed to keep an object moving with constant velocity.
Newton took this as his first law of motion.

Can you add an image of the work
It's simple. You just need to apply formular onto problem.
