The total energy of a body is conserved in an inertial frame. Suppose the motion begins and ends at two specific times, and that its energy when it starts is E. Which of these statements is correct?

Answers

The only time at which the energy again has the value E is the endpoint of the motion.

The energy takes on the value E at only a finite number of times between the beginning and the end.

The energy is equal to E at all times during the motion.

none of the above
