Solution

The types of potential energy can be associated with the following forces:

  1. Gravity: This is associated with gravitational potential energy. The work done by gravity on an object is related to the change in its height and mass.

  2. Ideal Spring: This is associated with elastic potential energy. The work done by a spring force is related to the spring constant and the displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position.

The other forces listed (Friction, Rocket thrust, Tension, Normal, Drag) are not typically associated with a specific type of potential energy. These forces often do work on objects, changing their kinetic energy, but they do not store energy in a way that is typically described as potential energy.
