Gravitational potential energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height; PE = mghShow...

Gravitational potential energy = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height; PE = mgh

Show that the gravitational potential energy of a 10-kg boulder raised 5 m above ground level is 500 J. (You can express g in units of N/kg because m/s2 is equivalent to N/kg.)
