When a body falls freely towards the earth, then its total energy

1. increases
2. decreases
3. remains constant
4. first increases and then decreases

Answer

Sinc, total energy of the system is always conserved, so when a body falls freely towards the earth, then its total energy remains constant i.e., the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy of the body would be same at all points.

The correct option is C.
