    Explanation:

    The formula for potential energy is PE=mgh.

    M being the mass, g being the force of gravity, and h being the height.

    First thing you want to do is convert 250 kg to g (grams).

    From there you get 25000g and you have to multiply that by 14m and 9.8m/s^2 (the force of gravity is constant, at least on earth).
