Answer

A mango falling from a tree possesses both gravitational potential energy (due to its height) and kinetic energy (due to its motion). As it falls, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

When the mango reaches the ground, just before impact, its gravitational potential energy is at its minimum (approaching zero), and its kinetic energy is at its maximum. Upon impact, this kinetic energy is rapidly converted into other forms of energy, such as sound, heat, and energy causing deformation of the mango and the ground.
