One way to increase the amount of potential energy of an object is by increasing the height. Potential energy, especially gravitational potential energy, is calculated using the formula \( PE = mgh \), where \( m \) is mass, \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity, and \( h \) is the height of the object above a reference point. By increasing the height \( h \), you increase the potential energy.
