A body is released from rest and allowed to fall freely from a given height under gravity. The kinetic energy at its half-way point is?

A.

a little above half of its initial energy

B.

a little below half of its initial energy

C.

a half of its initial energy

D.

a little above its initial energy

E.

a little below its initial energy

Correct answer is C

Energy for complete distance is twice the energy for half  the distance
