a 15kg television sits on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when it is lifted to a shelf of height 1.0m?

Explanation:

In this problem we are required to find the potential energy possessed by the television

Given data

mass of television m = 15 kg

height  added above the ground, h= 1-0.3 = 0.7 m

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s^2

apply the formula for potential energy we have

P.E= m*g*h

P.E = 15*9.81*0.7 = 103 Joules

e) none of the above answers are correct
