Victoria Falls (Moshi au Tunya), Zambize River bewteeen Zimbabwe and Zambia
The waterfalls were later named Victoria Falls by Dr. Livingstone when he
"discovered" them, but the original name, Moshi au Tunya, means "the smoke that thunders." You can listen to the sound in the video below.
The video also shows all of the kinetic energy in the falls.
For potential energy we can look at the rocks at the falls.
Rocks at the top of the falls have lots of potential energy, because they have the ability to fall.
Rocks at the bottom of the falls have very little potential energy. They can still move down stream, so they have some potential energy.
...and wow, look at the visible light of the electromagnetic spectrum.
