    Answer:

    h = 157.70 meters

    Explanation:

    Given the following data;

    Mass = 5.5 kg

    Gravitational potential energy = 8500 Joules

    We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s².

    To find the height of the object;

    Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

    Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

    G.P.E = mgh

    Where;

    G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

    m represents the mass of an object.

    g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

    h represents the height measured in meters.

    Substituting into the formula, we have;

    8500 = 5.5*9.8*h

    8500 = 53.9h

    h = 8500/53.9

    h = 157.70 m
