  4. When winding the key of a toy car, elastic potential energy is stored. This energy is stored in the wound-up spring mechanism, ready to be released to power the car's movement.

  5. During the fall, the total mechanical energy of the object remains constant, equal to its initial potential energy (mgh). As the object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases equivalently, ensuring the sum of both energies stays unchanged.
