An example of a system with decreasing gravitational potential energy is a ball in free fall. 

At its initial height h, the ball has a gravitational potential energy equal to
U=mgh
where m is the ball mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. As the ball falls toward the ground, its height h decreases, and so its gravitational potential energy decreases as well, according to the formula 
U=mgh'
where h' is the new height of the ball.

givi [52]

Answer:

decreases.

Explanation:

When the aircraft is flies from the warm air into the  colder air then its speed will be decreases.

as we know that

we know mach number is constant  

so that here Mach number M is expressed as  

M = \frac{u}{v}      .............................1

here u is  Local flow velocity with respect to the boundarie and v is the speed of sound in the medium

If the aircraft flies from hot air to cold air, the speed of sound in the medium will decrease. But the Mach number remains constant. Therefore, the local flow velocity relative to the boundaries also decreases.
