What is the potential energy of a 5 kg object held 10 m above the ground?

The potential energy of the object is given by the formula: Potential Energy = mass * gravity * height. Plugging in the values (mass = 5 kg, gravity = 9.8 m/s^2, height = 10 m), we get: Potential Energy = 5 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 10 m = 490 J.
