Question

As an object falls, how are kinetic and potential energy related?(1 point)
Responses

Potential energy will decrease in an amount equal to the increase in kinetic energy.
Potential energy will decrease in an amount equal to the increase in kinetic energy.

The amount of potential energy and kinetic energy each will remain the same.
The amount of potential energy and kinetic energy each will remain the same.

These are different forms of energy that will increase or decrease independent of each other.
These are different forms of energy that will increase or decrease independent of each other.

Both potential energy and kinetic energy will increase equally as the object accelerates.

Answer 1

Potential energy will decrease in an amount equal to the increase in kinetic energy.
