kinetic energy
Just standing there, a skier on the top of the mountain has potential energy. If she uses her poles to push-pull before taking off, she's building up a small amount of kinetic energy. If a skier is then moving down the mountain, his movement downward is kinetic energy which increases as his speed increases. If he or she collides with an immovable object while skiing, kinetic energy abruptly ends. If he or she takes off from the top of the mountain and an avalanche happens to hit at the same time, the kinetic energy of the avalanche engulfs the skier and overpowers the lower kinetic energy of the skier. The skier and avalanche become as if one in the kinetic force of the avalanche--until the skier collides with something or is buried, and thus is separated from the avalanche's kinetic energy which continues until the avalanche stops.
If at the top of the swing the pendulum is STOPPED then it has zero kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy comes from movement. If the roller coaster is moving at the top of the hill, it has kinetic energy. if the rollercoaster isn't moving then it has potential energy.
It would be more difficult to drink with a straw on the top of a mountain because of low atmospheric pressure. You would not have as much pressure to push the drink up the straw.
The boulder at the top of a mountain has potential energy due to its position relative to the ground below. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy when the boulder starts to roll down the mountain.
I can be harmful because sometimes when a large boulder is sitting on top of a small rocky hill and it starts to move which is called kinetic energy it might crush a person hiking below
The pebble has potential energy due to its position at a higher elevation. If the pebble were to roll down the mountain, the potential energy would be converted into kinetic energy as it moves.
The rock sitting on top of a cliff has potential energy due to its position above the ground. As the rock falls, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
The boulder has gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy as the boulder falls towards the ground.
The man on the top of a mountain would have potential energy due to his elevated position. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy if the man moves down the mountain.

potential energy
When skier is at the top of mountain he had kinetic energy which is further converted in to potential energy from the time when he start skiing from the top of the mountain.
A skier at the top of the mountain has potential energy, which is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state. As the skier moves downhill, potential energy is gradually converted into kinetic energy, the energy of motion.
potential energy due to its position above the ground. If the rock falls off the cliff, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy as it accelerates towards the ground.
Potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy as the rocks fall from the top of the mountain. The higher the rocks are initially, the more potential energy they have, and as they fall, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.
