Detailed Solution

This is because potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position. Therefore when something is on a certain height then the potential energy increases and kinetic energy will be zero. Hence, when the body is in the ground then kinetic energy increases and potential energy will be zero. Thus, at height h/2 both potential energy and kinetic energy of the body will be half.
