Solution

The gravitational potential energy (PE) can be calculated using the formula:

PE = m * g * h

where: m = mass = 852 kg g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² h = height = 3.5 m

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

PE = 852 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 3.5 m = 29,224 J

So, the correct answer is B. 29,224 J.
