While a child is riding on a sled down a steep, snow-covered hill, his elevation decreases, and hence kinetic energy increases and potential energy decreases. This statement is best for describing this.

The capacity of doing any work is called energy. The energy can be stored in different forms in an object, viz potential energy and kinetic energy.

When an object is at rest, it is said that the object possesses potential energy and when the object is in motion, the object is said to possess kinetic energy. It means potential energy is the stored energy in any object, whereas kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

When an object moves, potential energy is changed to kinetic energy. At the same time, if the speed of the object increases, the kinetic energy, it possesses, also increases.
