Rather than ascribing the increased kinetic energy of the stone to the work of gravity, we now (when using potential energy rather than work-energy) say that the increased kinetic energy comes from the of the energy. Choose the best answer to fill in the blanks above:

A. work / potential
B. force / kinetic
C. change / potential

The correct answer is option C

Change / potential

Explanation:

We know from the conservation of energy principle that the total energy must remain conserved.

KE₁ + PE₁ = KE₂ + PE₂

When kinetic energy is increasing then potential energy must decrease so that the total energy is conserved. The increased kinetic energy comes from the change of the potential energy so that the principle of energy conservation is satisfied.

i need the answer to this too but idk it ; -;
