  • The velocity of a body falling freely under the influence of gravity rises as its height falls.  
  • So, potential energy is reduced while kinetic energy is increased.  
  • According to the rule of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy, which is the sum of potential and kinetic energy, is always constant.
