Answer:

B. 4700 J

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mechanical energy = 4900J

Mass = 100kg

Velocity = 2m/s

To find the potential energy;

Mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

First of all, we would determine the kinetic energy of the object;

K.E = ½mv²

K.E = ½*100*2²

K.E = 50*4

K.E = 200 J

Substituting into the equation, we have;

4900 = 200 + P.E

P.E = 4900 - 200

P.E = 4700 Joules
