Question

The total energy of an object falling freely towards the ground … Rewrite the sentence using proper alternative.
(i) decreases
(ii) remains unchanged
(iii) increases
(iv) increases in the beginning and then decreases

Answer 1

remains unchanged is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

(ii) remains unchanged

Explanation:

The total energy of an object falling freely towards the ground will remain unchanged. When the body was at its topmost position the body had only potential energy, as the body start moving toward the ground the potential energy of the body will start converting into the kinetic energy. Also, according to the conservation of energy, energy can not be created and can not be destroyed ,it can only transform from one form to another. So, the energy of the body falling freely towards the ground will remain unchanged.
