GPE= weight•height= 15 N• 0.22meter= 3.3 Joules
I hope this helps ~~Charlotte~~

Answer:

GPE=3.3 J (Joules)

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position above Earth, it's given by the equation GPE = mgh, where

m: mass of the object.

g: acceleration due to gravity.

h: height.

We have the weight of the object, this is P=15N (newtons) and P=mg then:

GPE=Ph

GPE=(15N)(0.22m)

GPE=3.3 Nm

GPE=3.3 J
