Sorry, it will lose PE. Whatever way the PE(gain or loss), still there will be variations in PE due to water converted into ice high on the hill. Simply I want to know, how it is adjusted in arriving at total PE?
Thermodynamic Changes? Hello, I was trying to know more about potential energy in another topic here. Simply, I want to know:- Will there be some measurable thermodynamic changes in any substance on application of any force (four fundamental forces) on it and on variations in its potential energy? If yes, please tell in some detail. Best wishes.
