Solution

The correct option is B False
When ball is thrown straight up from a 10 storey building, its height increases and velocity decreases i.e.potential energy increases and kinetic energy decreases.It means that graph line of potential energy should go up and of kinetic energy down , this is shown in graph by point A.
