There is no such thing as a kinetic reaction. Any moving body has kinetic energy. When a rock falls, its gravitational potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy.
True.
Kinetic Enegry
That is a trick question, but I believe it is kinetic energy.
A falling rock. A cannonball in flight. A tetherball swinging around the pole. Anything that's moving.

True.
A rock falling of a cliff.

when the rock falls it gain kinetic energy when it falls.
A falling rock. In the air it has potential energy, as it falls it gets kinetic energy.

You can assume for this problem that "total energy" refers to "total mechanical energy", i.e., potential energy + kinetic energy.
If the object's falling energy increases (this would happen if the object is already falling downward, and air resistance is small), then the kinetic energy will increase.
it is kinetic because it involves releasing the energy.
