you use kinetic to use your posture and potential to make the shoot to the basket. These is a silly answer.

Describe the conversions between potential and kinetic energy that occur when you shoot a basketball in a basket?
When the ball is positioned in your hands it has full potential energy. As you move and the ball is thrown at the basket, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, by the transfer of kinetic energy from your arms, to your hands, to the ball. When the ball hits the basket some of its kinetic energy was converted into potential energy and then back into kinetic energy as it hit the ground.
What happens to a basketball's kinetic energy as it rises toward the basket?
The basketball's kinetic energy begins to turn into potential energy as it reaches the basket.
Mechanical energy is a term that is used to describe potential or kinetic energ y?

Amy is at basketball practice She is about to shoot a free throw When she releases the ball?
the ball will have kinetic energy and potential energy.
What is an example of kinetic energy being converted to a potential energy a.a basketball player jumping for a rebound b.releasing a compressed spring c.squeezing a rubberball?
I got this in my exam, and the answer is B) releasing a compressed spring as it a transformation from potential to kinetic
