प्रश्न
When a ball is thrown vertically upwards, its velocity goes on decreasing. What happens to its potential energy as its velocity becomes zero?
उत्तर
When a ball is thrown vertically upwards, its velocity goes on decreasing and hence, its kinetic energy also keeps on decreasing. As the ball is thrown vertically upwards, its height continuously increases to a certain point and hence, its potential energy increases continuously and reaches its maximum value when the ball reaches the maximum height.
