The energy caused when a rock falls off a cliff is primarily gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as the rock accelerates towards the ground. This kinetic energy increases as the rock falls, and upon impact, some of it is converted into sound and heat energy due to the collision.
When a rock falls from a cliff, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it gains speed and moves downward.
The rock perched on the edge of a cliff has gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground. This potential energy is stored in the rock as a result of its vertical distance from the ground and can be converted into kinetic energy if the rock falls off the cliff.
If it's not moving it doesn't have any energy
Yes, the rock has potential energy at the edge of the cliff due to its position in relation to the ground. If the rock falls, its potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy as it moves downward.
A rock that is sitting on top of a cliff has what is called potential energy.

A rock that is sitting on top of a cliff has what is called potential energy.
The potential energy of the rock is transformed into kinetic energy as it falls due to gravity. As the rock falls, some of its kinetic energy is also converted into heat and sound energy upon impact with the ground or other objects.
Yes, a large rock falling from a cliff and breaking is an example of mechanical energy being transformed into kinetic energy, as the potential energy stored in the rock at the top of the cliff is converted into energy of motion as it falls and breaks upon impact.
No. That is a rock fall.
Yes, the rock at the edge of the 600m high cliff has more potential energy than the rock at the edge of the 200m high cliff. Potential energy is directly proportional to the height, so the higher the cliff, the more potential energy the rock has.
Yes, a rock on the edge of a cliff contains potential energy due to its position in the Earth's gravitational field. As the rock falls, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it accelerates towards the ground.
It falls and break
The potential energy of the rock on the 100 m cliff is twice that of the rock on the 50 m cliff. This is because potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the object above the reference point. So, the higher the cliff, the greater the potential energy.
