A body is falling from a height h. After it has fallen from a height h2, it will possess
(a) only potential energy
(b) only kinetic energy
(c) half potential and half kinetic energy
(d) more kinetic and less potential energy
The answer is (c) half potential and half kinetic energy
Explanation:
When the body is at height h, its potential will be a hundred percent and kinetic energy will be zero. In the same way, when the body reaches the ground its potential energy will be zero and kinetic energy will be maximum. At height h/2 both potential energy and kinetic energy of the body will behalf.
