s alluded to in the other answers, salt refers to any ionic compound that doesn't have “oxides” in it. Table salt is sodium chloride. Going down the periodic table, the first column contains lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. This group (alkali metals) of atoms (and their corresponding positive ions) gets larger in the order shown above. Therefore, their ionic bonds with chloride (or any nonmetal) gets smaller. The trend of their corresponding compounds is a decreasing hardness, decreasing melting point, decreasing boiling point, and decreasing thermal stability. These are the major periodic trends of these corresponding compounds. Other metal ions generally have higher positive charges on them. This makes the ionic bonds considerably larger and you can probably surmise most of their corresponding properties listed above. However, the details of their lattice structures may cause the overall trend to vary.
We know, Potential Energy = Force * Height
Here, F = 40 N
h = 5 m
Substitute their values,
U = 40 * 5
U = 200 J
In short, Your Answer would be Option A
Hope this helps!

The reason that says that Venus should have had water from the sources the same as the Earth, but all of those are gone is not a correct reason why Venus is dry. Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system because of the atmosphere it has. The atmosphere of Venus contains 95% of CO2 causing it be hot and dry.
