U = mgh
= 1*5*10
=50 joules
= 1*5*10
=50 joules

Solutions:
The potential energy of a body is calculated by using the formula:
Potential energy = mgh
In this case, Mass, m = 1 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2
And, Height, h = 5 m
So, putting these values in the above formula, we get;
Potential energy = 1 × 10 × 5
= 50 J
