Where does the water in a waterfall have the most gravitational potential energy?
The water above receives energy as it falls down the short waterfall. This energy was stored as potential energy in the gravitational field of the Earth and came out of storage as the water dropped. This energy which came out of the gravitational field ended up being expressed as the kinetic energy of the water. That is, the water gains kinetic energy as it drops. An ounce of water is going faster when it hits the bottom of the waterfall than it was when it went over the top of the waterfall.
What is potential energy converted into as water runs over a waterfall?
Kinetic energy
Where does water have the most kinetic energy?
* When it's in a waterfall. * In a rapid river
What happens to the gravitational potential energy when water at the top of a waterfall falls to the pool below?
becomes kinetic energy
Is water flowing from a waterfall before it hits the pond below kinetic or potential energy?
is water real
What is a stream of water coming from a high place?
Waterfall
What is the energy conversion of a waterfall?
Dams

Where does the water have its maximum kinetic energy and minimum gravitational energy?
At the bottom of a waterfall.
What is potential energy converted into as water runs over a waterfall?
Kinetic energy
What kind of energy does water gain it travels down a waterfall?
Kinetic Energy.
Where does water from waterfall travels?
it goes from one place to a different place :)
Where does water have the most kinetic energy?
* When it's in a waterfall. * In a rapid river
How is water used as energy?
a waterfall can spin a lil wheelie thing and it can create energy by spinning.

Why the temperature of water is higher at the bottom waterfall?
the water loses gravitational potential energy and gains kinetic energy as it falls
Where does the energy of water at the top of waterfall come from?
well first i think the water comes from the ocean
