It CAN be converted to kinetic energy, but it won't always do so.
It is tranferred/converted into kinetic energy (DECREASES)
Kinetic energy and potential energy are not usually proportional. In the general situation, you can't derive potential energy from kinetic energy. In specific cases, sometimes you can - especially if you assume that potential energy that existed previously got converted to kinetic energy, or vice versa.Kinetic energy and potential energy are not usually proportional.

Potential - Kinetic - Potiential again as you drop the yo yo, the potential energy it had at its height is converted to kinetic energy. as it starts to come back up, it is converted back to potential energy
At the bottom , where all potential energy has been converted to kinetic
When an object - rocket or otherwise - rises, its kinetic energy gets converted to gravitational potential energy. At its highest point, if it rises directly upwards, all the kinetic energy will be converted to gravitational potential energy. However, its movement may also have a sideways component; in that case, not all the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
can be converted to potential energy.
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.
Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
It is tranferred/converted into kinetic energy (DECREASES)
When a gas is heated the energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Some of its potential energy changes to kinetic energy.
Energy transfer occurs when potential energy is changed to kinetic energy.
At the start of a swing the pendulum has lots of potential energy but no kinetic energy. As it moves downwards the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. In the upswing the kinetic energy is converted back into potential energy. Some of the energy is converted into heat by friction which is why the pendulum slows down.
Kinetic energy is the energy in a mass of matter that is in motion, the energy of motion. Potential energy (where mass is in a gravity field) can be converted into kinetic energy Chemical energy (of an explosion) can be converted into kinetic energy Electrical energy can be converted into kinetic energy (eg in an electric motor)

Assuming no energy is lost, the 70 J of potential energy will be converted into 70 J of kinetic energy.Assuming no energy is lost, the 70 J of potential energy will be converted into 70 J of kinetic energy.Assuming no energy is lost, the 70 J of potential energy will be converted into 70 J of kinetic energy.Assuming no energy is lost, the 70 J of potential energy will be converted into 70 J of kinetic energy.
When an object falls down, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
