Is this true or false the kinetic energy of a freely falling object decreases as it begins to fall

Sagot :

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy of the object as it moves. It has more kinetic energy the faster it moves. Because a falling object is increasing in speed, it would also increase in kinetic energy. Hope this helps! :)
IT INCREASES AS IT STARTED TO FALL, 
The kinetic energy = K.E =  1/2 * m *V^2  
FROM THAT EQUATION,  IT SAYS THAT THE K.E INCREASES AS THE VELOCITY INCREASE , SINCE IT FALLS SO IT WILL ACCELERATES, THAT MEANS THE VELOLCITY INCREASES, SO THE K.E INCREASE
