Answer:
The commercial unit of energy is 1 kWh. One kilowatt-hour is defined as the amount of energy that is consumed by a device in one working hour at a constant rate of one kilowatt. The SI unit of energy is Joule.
Potential energy is the work done to take a body to a certain height. For a body with mass m, h is the distance to which it is raised and g is the gravitational force acting on the body, then work done W is given as:
W = force * displacement
W = mg * h
∴ W = mgh
As the work done is equal to mgh which is gained by the object, potential energy Ep is given as:
Ep = mgh
