On the mountain, before they fall, they have "potential" energy. When they are falling they have "kinetic" energy.
The energy in a bathroom shower is typically in the form of thermal energy, as the hot water carries heat energy that warms up the water and the surroundings.
Water itself is not energy, but it can contain and transfer energy. For example, water can hold thermal energy in the form of heat, kinetic energy in the form of waves or currents, and potential energy in the form of water stored in a reservoir.
Tidal energy is an indirect form of solar energy. It is generated by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon on Earth's oceans, causing tides to rise and fall. This movement of water can then be harnessed to produce electricity through technologies like tidal turbines.
Falling water is a form of kinetic energy as it possesses energy due to its motion. This energy can be harnessed to generate electricity through hydropower systems.
"Falling water" starts with getting water to a place that it can fall from. This is accomplished by evaporation (inputting solar energy), transportation of the water vapour (using wind caused by solar energy), condensation to form precipitation (heat energy removal), and he downward flow of the water (gravitational energy).
Potential energy is the energy stored in a rock before its fall from a hill.

The energy in a bathroom shower is typically in the form of thermal energy, as the hot water carries heat energy that warms up the water and the surroundings.
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.

potential and kinetic
Any object that is above the chosen reference level (often this is the ground level) will have positive potential energy. Any object below the chosen reference level will have negative potential energy.
Water itself is not energy, but it can contain and transfer energy. For example, water can hold thermal energy in the form of heat, kinetic energy in the form of waves or currents, and potential energy in the form of water stored in a reservoir.
Tidal energy is an indirect form of solar energy. It is generated by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon on Earth's oceans, causing tides to rise and fall. This movement of water can then be harnessed to produce electricity through technologies like tidal turbines.
That form of energy is gravity.It is the gravity from the moon wich attracts the water.
