When a pendulum swings if it is not continuously pushed it will stop eventually because some of its energy is changed into blank energy?

The energy changes into is Thermal energy because of the friction caused by it moving produces heat. [Hope it helps]

How are objects able to gain energy as well as use it?

An object gains energy when it is either heated or pushed. If pushed vertically, it gains gravitational potential energy. If pushed horizontally, it gains kinetic energy.

If a stone is pushed from the top of the hill what kind of energy would it have halfway down the hill?

It would have an almost equal balance between gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. The discrepancy comes from energy lost as heat via friction with the air and ground.
