The contribution to the energy that changes KE is called work. Please

Sorry, but no. The contribution to energy as it increases each second
is the product of a force times the distance covered in that second.
This is known by every 7th grader but it still seems to elude you. Why
didn't you ask a question about this in the 7th grade?

Good, and then you'll also notice right next to the definition of work
something called the Work-Energy theorem.

A number of them, yes.
And not all of them included a charge in the region where this
property was measured!

Oh, come on. Here we go.
So for the photon, where you say Planck's constant tells you there is
mass involved and so the photon must have mass, how do you know that
the mass doesn't belong to all the tools involved in the experiment,
rather than to the photon itself?
Stop it. You twist and try to use a chain of logic one way for one
thing, to suit your need, and then another way for another thing,
again to suit your need.
That is cheating demagoguery, the very thing you claim to despise.
Look at yourself and be ashamed!

Dear Jerry: In your case, "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing."
Answers: 1. Yes. The correct formula is: PE = w + h / 16.087 ft.
(w).

2. NO! There is NO stored energy in the lifted object beyond its
STATIC WEIGHT. What that object has is just a 'potential' distance of
fall. The calculated PE can be 100% recovered ONLY if there is some
mechanism to cause the slow accumulation of KE. At the time of
demolition, the frame of a building will slow the descent sufficiently
so that PE is very close to KE. However, in the case of dropped
objects without an attached mode of slowing (energy recovery) the
maximum KE will never exceed that which can be imparted during the
TIME of free fall by the UNIFORM force of gravity = the object's
static weight In the latter case most of that work that was expended
in lifting the weight is lost (as a ground reaction) at the time of
the initial lifting.

3. Yes

4. Yes (Aren't YOU a deep thinker.)

5. As stated in 2., above, there is ZERO conversion of energy
occurring! Dropped objects ACCRUE KE at a uniform rate with time
according to my correct formula, KE = a/g (m) = v / 32.174 (m). After
one second the KE = two weight multiples. After two seconds the KE =
three weight multiples (not four).
