If an object falls down, potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy (energy of movement). However, if an object drifts down slowly - say, a feather falling in air, or an object that falls down in water - the energy will be immediately converted to heat energy.

When the balloon is blown up what kind of energy does it have?
Pressure - a kind of potential energy.Pressure - a kind of potential energy.Pressure - a kind of potential energy.Pressure - a kind of potential energy.
Fire is the change of what kind of energy to what kind of energy?
chemical potential energy (in the fuel being burned) to heat (thermal) energy and a little light energy.
What kind of form of energy is the change of position?
If the change of position is horizontal, then there's no energy involved. If it's a vertical change, then gravitational potential energy changes.
Why the temperature did not change although heat was added to it when the potential energy of the molecules increases?
Precisely because the heat energy that was added was used up elsewhere. Temperature is a kind of kinetic energy; a change of phase (like, from solid to liquid) is a kind of potential energy.Precisely because the heat energy that was added was used up elsewhere.

What is the energy stored in an object that is not moving?
Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object, and can be changed into kinetic, or other forms of energy. There are many types, such as Elastic Potential Energy and Gravitational Potential Energy.
