An apple is growing in the top branches of an apple tree. The stem breaks and the apple falls, moving faster and faster until it hits the ground.

Where is the energy to increase the speed of the apple coming from?



Energy is being created as the apple falls



Energy is not related to the speed of an object



The potential energy the apple had due to its height is converted to kinetic energy



The force from the wind that broke the stem is also pushing the apple down

Respuesta :

Answer:

The potential energy the apple had due to its height is converted to kinetic energy

Explanation:

When an apple falls from the tree to the ground, its energy of position stored as gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, the energy of motion, as it falls. When the apple hits the ground, kinetic energy is transformed into heat energy.
