The gravitational potential energy is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object to the height and the gravitational acceleration which is 9.8 m/s^2. We do as follows:

GPE = mgh
GPE = 4942
4942 = m (9.8)(6.15)
m = 82 kg 

Hope this helps.

What is an oscillation on waves?
Tasya [4]
The number of repetitions per second is called the frequency and is the inverse of the period. The period, T, is normally measured in seconds, and the frequency, ν, in Hertz. When the oscillations<span> (or vibrations) affect the material around them a </span>wave <span>is formed which transports energy away.</span>
