While falling, potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy (movement energy). Some gets lost to air resistance - that gets converted to heat.
Once the rock hits the ground, most of the kinetic energy will be converted to heat.
adolf Hitler is amazin ;)
The Law of Conservation of Energy doesn't give you much useful information in this situation. Anyway, what happens in terms of energy is simply that the dominoes initially have potential energy. While they are falling, the potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Once they hit the ground, the kinetic energy gets transferred to other forms of energy, in part the shock wave (vibration) imparted by the domino to the ground, in part heat.
Obviously no new energy is created - the Law of Conservation of Energy is still valid. What happens is that potential energy is converted into some other kind of energy, especially heat.
When the rock is high up but has not been dropped yet, it has a lot of gravitational potential energy because of its position. PE = (mass) x (G) x (height) After it is dropped, the lower it goes, the less potential energy it has. That bit of missing potential energy has become the kinetic energy that it now has on account of its speed of descent. KE = 1/2 (mass) x (speed)2
Potential energy is unrelated to speed.
Potential energy is not affected by speed.
depends on the simple circuit. please describe it.
When an object is dropped, its potential energy decreases. This is because potential energy is a result of an object's position or height above the ground. As the object falls, it loses height, which leads to a decrease in potential energy. At the same time, the object gains kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.

When charges are dropped then you are free to go

it dies

what happens is the mass stays the same because of the law of conservation of mass
Potential energy will decrease.

What happens to potential soak in water we build malls and parking lots ?
