Solution

The correct option is B its speed keep on increasing
While falling freely from a height, as the time passes, a body comes closer and closer to the ground.
And, with time, as the body accelerates, its speed increases more and more.
So, speed of the body keeps on increasing as the body comes closer to the ground.
