Question

The potential energy of a freely falling object decreases progressively. Does this violate law of conservation of energy? Why? ​

Answer 1

ANSWER

It is true that the potential energy of the falling object decreases progressively.

But as the object falls down, its speed increases that is, the kinetic energy of the object increases progressively.

Now, we can say that the law of conservation of energy is not dilated, because the decrease in potential energy results in the increase of kinetic energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

When the freely object initial value decreases than the potential energy of falling object also decreases. Law of conservation of energy say that energy May be created nor destroyed according to that we see that potential energy is decreases
