Answer:

Explanation:

The question has no set meaning. Suppose you take a rock to the top of a building. You put the rock over the edge of the building. You don't drop it yet. The potential energy is greatest for the rock under this condition. The kinetic energy is 0 because the rock is not moving.

Now you let the rock go. As it falls, it looses distance to the ground which means that the Potential energy is nearing 0. The Kinetic energy is picking up because the rock is moving faster.

At the bottom of the rock's journey just before it hits the ground, the KE is at a maximum and the PE is nearly 0.
