Sagot :

[tex]\tt{\huge{\blue{Explanation:}}}[/tex]

The potential energy of an object is given by

[tex]\boxed{PE = mgh}[/tex]

where:

PE = potential energy

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height

[tex]\tt{\huge{\red{Solution:}}}[/tex]

Solving for PE

PE = mgh

PE = (4 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(2 m)

[tex]\boxed{PE = \text{78.4 J}}[/tex]

Therefore, the potential energy of the bag is 78.4 J.
