The potential energy is the stored mechanical energy in an object that can change according to the changes in the position, condition, electric charge and inner tension of that object.
However, this kind of energy is completely different from the energy of an object in motion. Hence, the swimmer kicking his legs or a driving car or a flying arrow cannot be the examples of potential energy.
Therefore, a yo-yo in the hand of a person is the ideal example of potential energy, before it is thrown.
