Detailed Solution

The bag of wheat should be raised up to a height of 5 m to become its energy 9800 J.
Given data:
Mass of the bag, m=200 kg
Potential energy, P.E=9800 J
Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8 ms-2
To find the height of the bag to be raised.
The formula used:
Potential energy, P.E=mgh
Where, m is the mass of the object and h is the height of the object.
Now,
P.E=mgh
=P.Emg
   =9800200×9.8
   =5 m
Hence, the bag of wheat should be raised to a height of 5 meter.
