Darina [25.2K]

Your potential energy and mass don't tell what your weight is.

If I walk up from the first floor to the second floor, my weight hasn't

What real-world examples show no work begin done? Can you think of examples other than resisting the force of gravity?
irga5000 [103]
Oh my gosh !  Resisting the force of gravity always DOES involve doing work.
If no work is being done, then you're NOT resisting the force of gravity.

Example:

-- ball rolling on the floor . . . no work
-- ball rolling up a ramp . . . work being done
-- ball rolling down a ramp . . . work being done, BY gravity
