Question
When a body falls freely
Solution
When a body falls freely under gravity, its potential energy (PE) due to height is gradually converted into kinetic energy (KE) as it accelerates. The total mechanical energy (PE+KE) remains constant (neglecting air resistance) as per the law of conservation of energy.
