Kinetic energy increases whilst potential energy decreases. Total remains constant
a boulder falling through the air still has some potential energy, but some of its potential energy has changed to kinetic energy...so it has both potential and kinetic!
You can assume for this problem that "total energy" refers to "total mechanical energy", i.e., potential energy + kinetic energy.
the energy in an object about to fall is potential energy then kinetic energy because when the object is not falling, it has potential energy but when it's actually falling, it has kinetic energy.
it is kinetic because it involves releasing the energy.

potential and kinetic
A falling object.
A falling object changes from gravitational potential to kinetic.

A roller coaster has more potential energy at the bottom. There are 2 types of energy, potential and kinetic. energy closer to a surface or floor is potential energy and objects in the middle of it all has kinetic energy.
