Question

A body is dropped from a certain height from the ground. When it is halfway down, it possess,
  1. Only K.E.
  2. Both K.E. and P.E.
  3. Only P.E.
  4. Zero energy

A
Only K.E.
B
Only P.E.
C
Zero energy
D
Both K.E. and P.E.
Solution
Verified by Toppr

when a body is at some height from ground then its potential energy is mgh, assuming ground surface as reference.

also when the body has moved some distance than some of potential energy is converted to kinetic energy so it has both the energies kinetic as well as potential.
