The suns energy is generated at its?

the suns energy is generated at its core. The energy that is produced by the sun is generated by fusion.


Can potential energy be converted to kinetic at 100 percent efficiency?

No, some will always be lost as heat or sound. When something two objects rub together as would happen in a motor, friction force is generated, which generates heat. Thermal energy will almost always be generated in an energy conversion process.


How does the increase in thermal energy of the cylinder relate to the mass of the falling object?

Thermal energy is generated by the friction with the air (air resistance), it does not depend on the mass but the surface area of a falling object.
