Answer: The correct answer is force of gravity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravity is the force with which one body attracts the other body.

It goes down a hill with the increase in the kinetic energy. The kinetic energy is due to the motion of a wagon.

At the hill the gravity is lesser in comparison to the gravity on the surface of the earth.

When a wagon rolls down a hill it speeds up. Here, the earth attracts the wagon with the force of gravity. It accelerates down a hill with an acceleration due to gravity.
