When an object of mass m is raised through a vertical height Δh, the gain of its gravitational potential energy is ΔE_P. ΔE_P and Δh are related by the equation ΔE_P = mgΔh, where g is the acceleration of free fall. The definition of which physical quantity is needed to derive this equation?

1. Aacceleration
2. Bmomentum
3. Cpower
4. Dwork done
