An object has velocity toward south if a force is directed toward the north, will the kinetic energy increase, decrease, or stay the same ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since the force is acting in a direction opposite to motion of the body, its velocity decreases and
consequently its kinetic energy decreases.
