An object is falling freely from a height $x$. After it has fallen a height, it will possess:
  • A

  • B
    Only kinetic energy.
  • ✓
    Half potential and half kinetic energy.
  • D
    Less potential and more kinetic energy.
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
Half potential and half kinetic energy.
During the free fall, potential energy is gradually converted into kinetic energy. At half of the maximum height, energy is equally distributed in the form of potential and kinetic energy.
