Answer:

19,600 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

We have

PE = 500 × 9.8 × 4

We have the final answer as

19,600 J

Hope this helps you
