What is difference between potential and kinetic energy give two examples?
If the object is placed at height, it has potential energy and when this object falls down, this potential energy is converted to kinetic (kinesis means movement) energy. If we have to lift object at height , we have to spend energy, witch is released during fall of the object. Example is when water comes down in hydroelectric power station potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Witch is used to rotate wheel, creating electricity.
Is a person diving into water an example of potential energy?
Its a bad example, but some potential energy is involved. You convert chemical energy from the fuel to kinetic energy and heat energy. The kinetic energy drives you into the water. There the car sinks because of the height difference and gravity. This is a form of potential energy. A better example would be a person driving up and down a mountain. When driving up a mountain you store kinetic energy into potential energy. On the way down you regain the potential energy you stored, which results in a higher kinetic energy when driving down.
Is a water fall potential or kinetic?
A waterfall demonstrates both potential and kinetic energy. The water at the top of the waterfall has potential energy due to its height above ground, which is converted to kinetic energy as it falls down.
What form energy does the water in a water fall have?
The same as any other falling object. When it is at the top, it has gravitational potential energy; as it falls, that's converted to kinetic energy.
Which form of energy is converted to kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy in a mass of matter that is in motion, the energy of motion. Potential energy (where mass is in a gravity field) can be converted into kinetic energy Chemical energy (of an explosion) can be converted into kinetic energy Electrical energy can be converted into kinetic energy (eg in an electric motor)

Does a water fall have kinetic energy?
Yes, it does. Kinetic energy is energy in motion. If you have a waterfall, the energy within it is constantly being moved. If it were perhaps a waterfall that was frozen over, then it would not have kinetic energy; it would have potential energy. Relative to the pool at the bottom, the water at the top has potential energy until it reaches the edge. After it spills over, each kilogram of water loses 9.8 joules of potential energy and gains 9.8 joules of kinetic energy for every meter it falls. When it reaches the bottom, all of the potential energy it had at the top has been converted to kinetic energy.

What type of energy do snowflakes have as they fall?
kinetic energy because kinetic energy means moving
What energy transformation accurs to a water fall?
Gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy of the fall. Some of that is then converted to heat which helps water to evaporate and to slightly increase the water temperature at the foot of the fall, some is converted to the noise of the waterfall, some is used to erode rocks at the foot of the fall.
Energy conservation during free-fall?
During free-fall, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as an object falls due to gravity. This conversion process is an example of energy conservation, where the total mechanical energy (potential energy + kinetic energy) of the object remains constant throughout the fall in the absence of external forces like air resistance.
Is sitting in a chair example of potential energy?
Sitting in a chair is an example of gravitational potential energy. This is because when you are sitting in a chair, you have the potential to fall down due to gravity. Your position above the ground gives you potential energy that can be converted to kinetic energy if you were to stand up and fall.
What is the energy conversion of a waterfall?
Dams
