Detailed explanation-1: -A child climbing a ladder is transforming kinetic energy into potential energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -The answer is “at the top of a hill.” Potential Energy is “stored energy.” It is energy that is ready to be converted or released as another type of energy. We most often think of potential energy as gravitational potential energy. When objects are higher up, they are ready to fall back down.

Detailed explanation-3: -Potential Energy is defined as the energy stored by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors. When you (or a rock) are standing at the top of a hill, you possess more potential energy than when standing at the bottom.
