Identify the formula for gravitational potential energy.

The gravitational potential energy ($PE$) is calculated using the formula:

where $m$ is the mass, $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity, and $h$ is the height above the reference level.

• Mass, $m = 10 \text{ kg}$
• Acceleration due to gravity, $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$
• The height ($h$) at which the mass is placed above ground level is not explicitly given in the problem. For the purpose of providing a numerical answer, we will assume a height of $h = 1 \text{ m}$ above ground level.

The gravitational energy of the mass, assuming a height of $1 \text{ m}$, is:
