Question

The velocity of a freely falling body increases or decreases with time?

Answer 1

`"Please have a look at the animation below."`

Explanation:

• First of all, we recommend watching the animation several times.

• The point P symbolizes the free falling body.
• The object has zero speed in its first position.
• At equal time intervals, the velocity of object rate increases uniformly.
• when you calculate the green painted area in the graph you will find how many meters the object has fallen.
• The object has the greatest speed when hit.
• The Potential energy of object with respect to the ground decreases.
• As the speed of the approaching object increases, its kinetic energy increases.
