Answer:

Joules

Explanation:

The unit for Energy is Joules, which is equal to kg m²/s².

The gravitational potential energy is calculated as:

[tex]Ep=\text{mgh}[/tex]

Where m is mass (kg), g is gravity (m/s²) and h is the height (m). So, the unit of the potential energy is:

[tex]kg\cdot\frac{m}{s^2}\cdot m=kg\cdot\frac{m^2}{s^2}=\text{Joules}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is joules.
