Want this question answered?
PE = m x 9.8 x h:So, 5kg x 9.8 x 5m = 245 joules potential energy.
The rock's PE is 29400 joules.
P.E=mgh =10.2 by 10 by 300 P.E=30,600J
Well gravitational potential energy is potential energy that depends on the height of an object so an object would have gravitational potential energy when ever it's of the ground or at a high height (it doesn't have to be very high) for example if you lift up a ball it has the potential to fall or if your climbing a mountain you have gravitational potential energy.
It really depends on the type of potential energy, but basically, just keeping an object in a high energy position, against some force, will store the potential energy. For example, water has more potential energy when it is in a higher position; typically it would be kept in a high position by a dam, until the energy is needed.

Beginning with its potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy when it falls

"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.

You can use the electricity to pump water up into a high reservoir, where it then has mechanical potential energy. Or store it in a battery - chemical potential energy.
