The second point is that we must account for all the ways energy can change. If we observe a process, and the ch ...

Note that, for a falling object, we always have y > 0 (because the object is above the surface of the earth), v < 0 (because v = dy/dt and y is decreasing), and a < 0 (because a = dv/dt and v is decreasing). The fact that a < 0 is a subtle point: The free—falling object speeds up as it falls, meanin ...
