Step-by-step explanation:


\sf \: Mass \: of \: the \: body: 783\: kg


\sf \: Acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity : 10


\sf \: Height : 164 \: metres


\sf\longmapsto \: 783 * 10 * 164


\sf\longmapsto 7830 * 164


\sf\longmapsto 1284120\:


\sf\longmapsto 1284120 \:Joule\:

Answer:


potential \: energy = mgh \\ m = 783 \\ g = 10 \\ h = 164 \\ pe = 783 * 10 * 164 \\ = 7830 * 164 \\ = 1284120 \: joule \\ thank \: you
