Answer:
h = 2.43 [m]
Explanation:
Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height. In this way, you can calculate the height by means of the following equation.
[tex]E_{pot}=m*g*h[/tex]
where:
Epot = potential energy = 20500 [J]
m = mass = 860 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
h = elevation [m]
[tex]20500=860*9.81*h\\\\h = 2.43 [m][/tex]
