Yes, it does.
The hammer has potential energy when held high above a nail. This potential energy is due to its position and the force of gravity acting upon it. When the hammer is released and falls, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the hammer moves.
The hammer will have potential energy. It is because of the height.
When you hit a nail with a hammer, mechanical energy is converted into sound energy, thermal energy (due to friction between the hammer and nail), and potential energy in the form of the nail being driven into the surface.

A hammer uses mechanical energy, which is a combination of potential energy (from its position above the target) and kinetic energy (from its motion when swung).
Examples of gravitational energy include a book resting on a shelf, water held in a dam, and a roller coaster at the top of a hill. In these situations, potential energy is stored due to the gravitational forces acting on the objects.
No, a hammer held above a nail has potential energy due to its position relative to the nail. Potential energy is energy that an object has due to its position or state, whereas kinetic energy is energy of motion.
Kinetic and potential.
A piano primarily stores potential energy in the form of mechanical energy when its keys are lifted. When a key is pressed, this potential energy is converted into sound energy as the hammer strikes the strings, producing sound vibrations.
When a hammer hits a nail, the potential energy stored in the hammer is converted into kinetic energy as it moves towards the nail. Upon impact, some of this kinetic energy is transferred into mechanical work to drive the nail into the surface, while the rest is dissipated as sound and heat energy.
When a hammer strikes a nail, the potential energy stored in its raised position is transformed into kinetic energy as it moves downward. Some of this kinetic energy is transferred to the nail, causing it to penetrate the surface. The remaining energy is dissipated as sound and heat.
