There is no such thing as gravitational energy.
The ball has the most potential energy at the apex of its throw.

When a ball is throw straight up at what position is its kinetic energy at its maximum and at what position is gravitational potential energy at its maximum?
It's kinetic energy is highest when it is about half way to the top. The gravitational potential energy is highest when it is about to fall back down.
Can Elastic potential energy be converted to gravitational potential energy?
Yes. For example when a mass hung to a spring is displaced downwards from its equilibrium position, it oscillates and at the maximum height, the body has gained gravitational Ep compared to its initial position.
The energy of position such as a rock on a hill is what energy?
Gravitational energy Potential energy
Where is its gravitational potential energy a maximum?
At the top.
Stored energy and the energy of position are what kind of energy?
Stored energy is usually potential energy, but it can be kinetic, such as a spinning flywheel. The energy of position is usually gravitational potential energy.

When does the string of a car on a roller coaster store its maximum gravitational potential energy?
Any object has maximum gravitational potential energy when it is at its highest position.
Can you have maximum gravitational potential energy and maximum gravitational kinetic energy at the same point?
No, gravitational portential energy is more with more hight and gravitational kinetic energy is maximum just before reaching the ground.
Can Elastic potential energy be converted to gravitational potential energy?
Yes. For example when a mass hung to a spring is displaced downwards from its equilibrium position, it oscillates and at the maximum height, the body has gained gravitational Ep compared to its initial position.
The energy of position such as a rock on a hill is what energy?
Gravitational energy Potential energy
A ball is thrown straight up into the air at what position is its gravitational potential energy maximum?
Kinetic energy is at its maximum when the velocity of the ball is greatest. This will occur immediately upon release. Air resistance will slow the ball from this point and unless the ball falls back past its original starting height, it will never achieve a velocity greater than that with which it starts.
Where is its gravitational potential energy a maximum?
At the top.
What is the energy of position- such as a rock on a hill?
Gravitational Energy(:
When is its gravitational potential energy at maximum?
A body's potential energy is at its maximum when it is at its greatest height to which it is elevated from the ground or another chosen position, such as a table top. Refer to the related link below for more information and illustrations.
Stored energy and the energy of position are what kind of energy?
Stored energy is usually potential energy, but it can be kinetic, such as a spinning flywheel. The energy of position is usually gravitational potential energy.
Is gravitational potential energy is the same gravitational force?
No. Gravitational force is the pull an object experience from gravity. Gravitational energy is the energy an object has from its position in a gravitational field. An object moving up in a gravitational field gains gravitational energy.
Where does the water have its maximum kinetic energy and minimum gravitational energy?
At the bottom of a waterfall.
