The potential energy of a system increases if work is done

Question

The potential energy of a system increases if work is done (A) upon the system by a non conservative force (B) by the system against a conservative force (C) by the system against a non conservative force (D) upon the system by a conservative force

When the work is done by the system against any conservative force, the potential energy increases -Δ U=W text conservative fore

upon the system by a non conservative force

by the system against a conservative force

by the system against a non conservative force

upon the system by a conservative force

When the work is done by the system against any conservative force, the potential energy increases $- Δ U = W_{conservative fore}$
