Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Initial and Final Forms of Energy

When a ball is at the top of a hill, it possesses potential energy due to its elevated position. As it rolls down the hill, this potential energy is converted into another form of energy.

Step 2: Determine the Energy Conversion

As the ball rolls down, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.

Step 3: Match the Conversion to the Given Options

From the given options:
