m = 200 kg
g = 9.8 ms-2
PE = 9800 J
PE = m × g × h
9800 J = 200 kg x 9.8 ms-2 x h
h = 9800
J = 200 kg x 9.8 ms-2
h = 5 m
Thus, the bag of wheat should be raised to a height of 5 m.

➽ Question :-
A bag of wheat 200 kg. To what height should it be raised so that the potential energy may be 9800 joules???
➽ Answer:
• the bag of wheat should be raised to a height of 5 metres .
➽ Given :-
- Mass of the bag = 200 kg
- Potential energy = 9800 J
- Gravity = 9.8 m/s²
➽ To Find :-
- Height = ?
➽ Solution :-
As we know that
- P.E = mgh
where,
- P = Potential energy
- m = Mass
- g = gravity
- h = Height
Now, putting the values in the above formula we get,
➞ 9800 = 200 x 9.8 x h
➞ h = 9800 / 200 x 9.8
➞ h = 5 m
Hence, the bag of wheat should be raised to a height of 5 metres .
