True. The boulder rolling down a hill possesses potential energy due to its height above the ground, which can be converted into kinetic energy as it rolls downward.
A heavier object typically has greater kinetic energy than a lighter object. This is because kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass: the greater the mass, the greater the kinetic energy, assuming both objects are moving at the same velocity.
A wind turbine converts the kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy through the rotation of its blades. This mechanical energy is then converted into electrical energy by a generator within the turbine, which can be used to power homes and businesses.
At the top of a hill, a skier has potential energy due to their position above the ground. As the skier comes down the hill, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the skier gains speed.
The temperature of the water affects its kinetic energy. At higher temperatures, the water molecules have more kinetic energy, resulting in increased movement and thermal energy. When placed in the freezer, the kinetic energy decreases, causing the water molecules to slow down and form a solid state (ice). On the hot stove, the increased kinetic energy causes the water to evaporate and turn into steam (vapor) as it reaches its boiling point.
Chemical energy mainly, then a bit of potential energy. And some kinetic energy if it's moving.
Temperature depends on the level of heat; heat being an energy.

it depends if it is bouncing if it is it is kinetic energy but it your just standing on it it's potential

Sense and Respond, and uses energy.

That would depend on the circumstances. But I would guess that in many cases, the sound would eventually be absorbed, meaning that most of it converts to heat energy.

The sun primarily releases energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, which is a combination of both potential and kinetic energy. Gravitational potential energy is involved in the sun's nuclear fusion process, while the kinetic energy of the particles created during fusion is converted into electromagnetic radiation that we receive as sunlight.
Turbines and generators are both components of power plants. Turbines are used to convert the kinetic energy of flowing water, steam, or wind into mechanical energy, while generators then convert this mechanical energy into electrical energy. The two work together to produce electricity.
