    When an object gets raised to a higher place, it gets potential energy.

    The energy has to come from whatever motor or person is lifting it.

    The amount of potential energy it has is

    (mass of the object) x (acceleration of gravity) x (how far it gets lifted).

    If the object has 7 kg of mass, and you have 350 joules of energy

    to lift it with, then

    Potential energy at the top = 350 joules

    350 joules = (7 kg) x (gravity) x (height)

    = (7 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (height)

    (350 joules) / (7 kg x 9.8 m/s²) = height

    Height = (350) / (7 x 9.8) (kg-m²/s²) / (kg-m/s²)

    = 5.1 meters
