Answer:

D. 19,600 J

Explanation:

The formula for potential energy(PE) is PE = mgh, with m standing for mass, g for acceleration due to gravity, and h for height. The acceleration due to gravity on earth is constant, 9.8 meters per second squared. Substituting the formula would give PE = (20)(9.8)(100)/ PE = 19,600 J.
