Potential Energy

The person has the potential to be in motion, the opportunity to, so therefore the answer is Potential Energy.

Ellen · Answer 2

Kinetic energy is the energy in a moving object, such as a person that has already jumped. Potential energy means energy that could be used. A bouncy ball sitting on a shelf 5 ft from the ground has less potential energy than one sitting 10 ft from the ground. A person that is about to bungee jump has potential energy because they are not yet in motion.
