The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, heat and sometimes sound.
the energy in an object about to fall is potential energy then kinetic energy because when the object is not falling, it has potential energy but when it's actually falling, it has kinetic energy.
As soon as the object is allowed to move, potential energy starts getting transformed into kinetic energy. For example the object placed on height. As soon as it is allowed to fall, the potential energy starts getting converted into kinetic energy. It is maximum at the time the object touches the ground.
A falling object has the greatest potential energy when it is highest, at the beginning of the fall. It has the greatest kinetic energy when it is at its lowest, at the end of the fall. Without taking friction or air resistance into account, the beginning potential energy is the same as the final kinetic energy. If friction is considered, the beginning potential energy is greater.
When the object changing its position from up per to a lower position.As an example an object falling from a building
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.

You are changing the object's gravitational potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is the energy due to position of the object above the Earth. This energy has the potential to be transformed into Kinetic Energy if the object falls.
A falling object.
Kinetic energy is that energy possessed by a moving object, inherent in the fact it is moving. Potential energy is that energy in any object which remains static within the object, and is not being transformed or transferred at that time.
An object's potential energy doesn't depend on its speed. You can do anything you like with the object's speed, and it has no effect on potential energy.
the energy in an object about to fall is potential energy then kinetic energy because when the object is not falling, it has potential energy but when it's actually falling, it has kinetic energy.
Because they are not mutually exclusive. Take for example a falling object; while falling at a given velocity it has (.5)(mass)(velocity)2=Kinetic Energy but also has the potential energy of whatever distance it has yet to fall, which equals (mass)(gravity)(height)=Potential Energy These two types of energy equal the Total Energy of the falling object, which never changes as it falls.
As soon as the object is allowed to move, potential energy starts getting transformed into kinetic energy. For example the object placed on height. As soon as it is allowed to fall, the potential energy starts getting converted into kinetic energy. It is maximum at the time the object touches the ground.
When a mass reaches the ground it will have a lot of potential energy installed inside. at the moment of hit all the potential energy is transformed into kinetic one. According to the type of the object the kinetic energy will act. if elastic it will jump up the same distance it fell (if free fall). .....
A falling object has the greatest potential energy when it is highest, at the beginning of the fall. It has the greatest kinetic energy when it is at its lowest, at the end of the fall. Without taking friction or air resistance into account, the beginning potential energy is the same as the final kinetic energy. If friction is considered, the beginning potential energy is greater.
Potential (gravitational) energy is transformed into kinetic energy. So, for instance, if you lift an object, you're storing energy which will act on the object once you let it go (increasing velocity).
A falling object changes from gravitational potential to kinetic.
