Now consider water in a dam. It has potential energy because it has a potential to flow down.
(Potential energy is defined as the energy possessed by an object due to its position or state of strain)
Now the dam is opened, the water flows down coverting potential energy into kinetic energy due to its motion.
I will tell you another example for kinetic energy.
Imagine a moving block of wood and it is colliding with a block of wood which is at rest resulting in displacement in the direction of force.hence we conclude that the moving block of wood had energy because it caused displacement.
