No, because potential energy is the amount of energy that COULD be used, while kinetic energy is the amount of energy that IS being used.
There would be more gravitational potential energy than kinetic energy when an object is at a high elevation or position above the ground, where the gravitational potential energy is proportional to the height of the object. As the object falls, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, so at any point during the fall, the sum of potential and kinetic energy remains constant.
When an object drops, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it accelerates towards the ground. As the object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases until it reaches the ground, where it has no more potential energy but maximum kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy, or KE, is the energy objects have when in basic motion. If you are talking about the movement of particles in the object, creating heat, it is IE, Internal Energy. and FYI, Potential Energy, PE, is the energy an object has in accordance to its position.
Sure, when the ball is in the highest position, it has a maximum amount of potential energy. When it is just about to hit the other balls, the potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy. When the other ball goes up again, the kinetic energy turns, once more, into potential energy.Sure, when the ball is in the highest position, it has a maximum amount of potential energy.

Well, basically, the higher an object is above the ground, the more potential energy it has. For kinetic energy, the amount of energy depends on the amount of force.
Yes, having more potential energy typically results in having more kinetic energy. When an object has a higher potential energy, it has the capacity to do more work, which can then be converted into kinetic energy as the object moves.
Potential to kinetic kinetic to potential Thermal to solar
It can be a little complicated but I'll do my best to explain.Quick Vocab: potential energy - the stored energy in an object because of its position, shape, or condition. Kinetic energy - the energy of an object due to its motion. The more potential energy an object has the more Kinetic energy it will have. Basically when the object is moved the potential energy is released and becomes kinetic energy. As the kinetic energy (speed) increases the Potential energy decreases.So yes, when the potential energy decreases the speed increases.
Kinetic energy is related to movement (a faster object has more kinetic energy); potential energy is related to position (higher up, objects have more potential energy).Examples:A leopard waiting in a tree, motionless, waiting to jump on you has potential energy.A leopard leaping on you has kinetic energy, or energy of movement.Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has when it is in motion. Potential energy is the energy that an object has when it is at rest. For example, a book sitting on a desk has maximum potential energy and zero kinetic energy. If the book falls off of the desk, then its kinetic energy increases and its potential energy decreases.

Sure, any object at the reference level or ground level (whatever you define to be the ground level, for your calculations) will have zero potential energy; if it moves, it will have a positive kinetic energy. What's more, if the object is belowthe selected reference level, it will have negativepotential energy. In this case, even if it doesn't move, its kinetic energy (zero) will be greater than its potential energy (which is negative).
When an object drops, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it accelerates towards the ground. As the object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases until it reaches the ground, where it has no more potential energy but maximum kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, KE=mv2/2.Thermal energy is different from kinetic energy.Thermal energy is associated with the temperature of a body, the heat gained by increasing the temperature. That heat gives molecules more kinetic energy and more potential energy and may also give molecules more more electronic energy.
Elastic cars work by converting elastic potential energy into kinetic energy. The most potential energy, the more kinetic energy.
As an object falls from a higher level to a lower level, the gravitational potential energy that it had at the higher level changes to kinetic energy. As more and more potential energy changes to more and more kinetic energy, the increase of kinetic energy shows up in the form of greater speed.
