During the free fall of an object, which of the following forms of energy increases at any point along its path?
AChemical energy
BPotential energy
CMechanical energy
DKinetic energy
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Kinetic energy
1. As the object falls, its height decreases so potential energy decreases.
2. Its speed increases as it falls, so kinetic energy increases.
3. Hence kinetic energy is the one that increases.
