Gravitational potential energy is calculated by multiplying mass, height and the acceleration due to gravity.

Gravitational potential energy = mgh
Gravitational potential energy = 75 kg (9.8 m/s^2) ( 30 m)
Gravitational potential energy =22050 joules

Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

Answer:the answer is c 14,700
