उत्तर
The diagram shows a freely oscillating pendulum.

In position A, it has max. P.E. and zero K.E.
In position B, it has zero P.E. and max. K.E.
In position C, it has a max. P.E. and zero K. E.
Thus, the experiment clearly proves that the sum of the total energy is conserved, but it can change its form.
