How do you convert convert potential engery into kinetic energy?

The ways to harness energy vary as broadly as the sources that are being tapped. There are a lot of energy sources, and it would be wise to investigate a bit more by asking some more questions here and narrowing the focus of them.

Does a windmills uses potential or kinetic engery?
Kinetic energy
When a girl starts running she is converting stored energy into?
kinetic engery, sense she's moving. Potential = stored. Kinetic = moving energy.
What does the potential engery of a bus change into for the bus to move?
The potential energy of a bus typically changes into kinetic energy for the bus to move. When the bus starts moving, the stored potential energy is converted into the energy of motion, resulting in the bus's kinetic energy.
What type of energy is also called movement?
Kinetic energy is the scientific name for movement energy.
Does an object gain energy when work is done on the object?
If you push a round heavy object up an incline it has gained energy based on the distance and the height of the incline, at rest at the bottom the potential engery was a factor of its mass, movement from point A at the bottom to point B at the top gave it energy that change from potential to kinetic when released at the top to roll back down.

Is engery the ability to do work?
Yes, it is. There are two types of energy-- potential energy and kinetic energy.

How does density effect kinetic energy?
The more dense an object is the more kinetic engery it has
What is a device that can convert electrical energy to chemical engery?
A rechargeable battery.

Can a moving object have potential energy?
It can be. A body has potential energy when it has been operated on so that work has been done which can then be released, ie it has potential to do work. For example a weight has been raised by using a force to raise it against gravity. But then the weight could also be moving so that it would also have kinetic energy.
How is temperature and thermal energy different?
Temperature is when the heat measures the average of the kinetic energy Thermal is averged together with kinetic engery, and all the others, to make thermal energy
What term refers to the total kinetic engery of particles in a material?
heat
