Gravity pulls the object and its velocity increases.
The kinetic energy of a moving object is 1/2*m*v2
Directly, No Indirectly, Yes
If a body with gravitational potential energy is allowed to fall, then the potential energy is converted (mostly) to kinetic energy.
Some of its potential energy changes to kinetic energy.
Gravitational potential energy IS mechanical energy. Mechanical energy includes both kinetic energy, and potential energy.When an object falls, gravitational potential energy will be converted to KINETIC energy.
chemical energy
Gravitational potential energy (often abbreviated to GE) which is then converted to kinetic energy when somebody falls.

chemical energy
The pendulum's momentum or kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy until all of the kinetic energy is converted. The pendulum stops.
Kinetic energy
Not directly; the two are independent. But if an object with gravitational potential energy falls, that energy may be converted to kinetic energy.
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
Gravitational potential energy (often abbreviated to GE) which is then converted to kinetic energy when somebody falls.
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
When an object - rocket or otherwise - rises, its kinetic energy gets converted to gravitational potential energy. At its highest point, if it rises directly upwards, all the kinetic energy will be converted to gravitational potential energy. However, its movement may also have a sideways component; in that case, not all the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
can be converted to potential energy.
