Answer: When a stone is thrown vertically upwards, the following conclusions can be done for point P,
(a) The acceleration for the entire journey of the stone is constant, as acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the earth is constant.
(b) The velocity of the stone at P will be the least. Hence, kinetic energy at this point will be the least.
(c) The stone is at a maximum height at point P. Hence, the potential energy is the maximum at P.
(d) Weight of the stone will remain nearly constant, as acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the earth is constant.

Therefore, the answer is:
(c) Its potential energy.

LIGET Whe world is largely known through the senses. The sense of sight comb and close all its openings is one of the most important except one in the middle. You can senses. Through it we see mountains. use a strip of black paper for rivers, trees, plants, chairs, people and this purpose. Hold the comb so many other things around us. We also perpendicular to the sheet of paper. see clouds. rainbows and birds flying Throw light from a torch through in the sky. At night we see the moon the opening of the comb from one and the stars. You are able to see the side (Fig. 16.1). With slight words and sentences printed on this adjustment of the torch and the page. How is seeing made possible? comb you will see a ray of light along the paper on the other side of the Visible in the path of the light ray (Fig. Have you ever thought how we see 16.1). What do you observe? various objects? You may say that eyes see the objects. But, can you see an object in the dark? It means that eyes alone cannot see any object. It is only when light from an object enters our eyes that we see the object. The light may have been emitted by the object, or may have been reflected by it. You learnt in Class VII that a polished or a shiny surface can act as a mirror. A mirror changes the direction of light that.falls on it. Can you tell in which direction the light falling on a surface Fig. 16.1 : Arrangement for showing reflection will be reflected? Let us find out. After striking the mirror, the ray of 16.2 Laws of Reflection. light is reflected in another direction. Activity 16.1 The light ray, which strikes any surface. Fix a white sheet of paper on a is called the incident ray. The ray that drawing board or a comes back from the surface after reflection is known as the reflected ray.
