Answer:

The correct answer is "64 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 52 kg

Velocity,

v = 6 m/s

Mechanical energy,

= 1000 J

Now,

The gravitational potential energy will be:

⇒ [tex]P.E=1000-\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

           [tex]=1000-\frac{1}{2}\times 52\times (6)^2[/tex]

           [tex]=1000-26\times 36[/tex]

           [tex]=1000-936[/tex]

           [tex]=64 \ J[/tex]
