gravitational potential energy converts gradually to kinetic energy. At the bottom of the hill, when the rock has stopped moving, there will be no gravitational energy or kinetic energy, it will have all been transformed to heat, sound, friction, and maybe some damage to the rock or the ground. (permanent distortion)
It has potential energy that can be released by starting it rolling down the hill so that the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and friction with the surface.
The situation is similar as when an object falls. Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (including rotational energy in this case); part of that kinetic energy is converted to heat energy.
Yes, a rock on a hill has gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy if the rock rolls down the hill.
As the ball rolls down the hill, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. The higher the hill, the more potential energy the ball has, which is converted into kinetic energy as it gains speed while rolling downhill.
The snowball at the top of a hill has potential energy due to its position above the ground. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy as the snowball rolls down the hill.

When a ball rolls down a hill, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. As the ball moves downhill, its potential energy due to its height is converted into the energy of motion, which is kinetic energy.
As the boulder rolls down the hill, it is primarily losing potential energy that it had due to its position on the hill. As it moves, this potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy of motion.
The energy stored in a bicycle at the top of a hill is potential energy, which is due to its position relative to the ground. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy as the bike descends the hill and gains speed.
Yes, kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy, and vice versa. For example, when a roller coaster reaches the top of a hill, its kinetic energy (motion) is converted into potential energy (height). Conversely, when the roller coaster descends the hill, the potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy.
Energy transfers play a crucial role in determining the heights of hills as potential energy is converted to kinetic energy when objects move uphill. The height of a hill is related to the amount of potential energy that can be converted into kinetic energy as objects move up the hill. Therefore, the steeper the hill, the more potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy, resulting in higher hill heights.
The energy of position for a rock on a hill is potential energy, specifically gravitational potential energy. This energy is stored in the rock due to its position above the ground and can be converted into kinetic energy if the rock rolls down the hill.
At the top of a hill, a skier has mostly potential energy due to their elevated position. As they ski down the hill, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as they gain speed.
