Answer:

Potential Energy

Explanation:

Any body that is static in a particular position possesses a potential energy as far as it is not moving.

But if it is moving, then it possesses a kinetic energy. The first and main energy a body possess due to it's position is therefore known as potential energy, because it has the potential of converting it to other forms of energy after a slight application of force.
