Answer:

125.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the bowling ball  = 6.1kg

Height of lifting  = 2.1m

Unknown:

Increase in the ball energy  = ?

Solution:

The ball has changed position by moving it from one point to another. So, it has acquired more potential energy.

 Potential energy  = mgh

     m is the mass

     g is the gravity  

     h is the height

Now insert the given parameters and solve;

       Potential energy  = 6.1 x 9.8 x 2.1  = 125.5J
