Q. As an object falls freely its ___________________.
A) potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy
B) kinetic energy gets converted into potential energy
C) gravitational force gets converted into momentum
D) momentum gets converted into gravitational force
✔ Correct Answer: potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy
Exam Insight
As an object falls freely under gravity, its velocity increases uniformly due to constant acceleration, while its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases.
