The action that best demonstrates potential energy being transformed into kinetic energy is:
a bungee jumper is released at the top of a tall tower and starts to fall.
In this scenario, the bungee jumper starts with a high amount of potential energy due to their elevation at the top of the tower. Once they are released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as they fall towards the ground.
