every particle want to reduce its potential energy.
so simplest example of this is a wooden piece. When we through it then it will always be going downward to the earth because it want to reduce its potential energy....
Examples of gravitational potential energy include a book sitting on a shelf, a ball at the top of a hill, and a person standing on a diving board.
Examples of storing gravitational potential energy include: Water in a raised dam A boulder at the top of a cliff A book on a high shelf A person at the top of a staircase.
Examples of gravitational potential energy include: a book resting on a shelf, a rock sitting on a cliff, and a ball thrown in the air.
A book on a shelf has gravitational potential energy because of its position relative to the ground. Water stored in a dam has gravitational potential energy due to its elevated position. A rock held at the top of a cliff has gravitational potential energy that can be converted to kinetic energy when it falls.
Objects at a height above the ground such as a book on a shelf, a pendulum at its peak, and water in a raised reservoir are examples of stores of gravitational potential energy.

Potential energy is when you do work against a conservative force. Examples are gravitational potential energy; the stored energy in a spring; chemical energy; and nuclear energy.
One example is a backpack on your back.
carrying water in a tub

Sound energy, gravitational potential energy, and mechanical energy are non-examples of chemical energy. Chemical energy is specifically related to the potential energy stored in chemical bonds.
Potential energy is the "energy of position" - work done against a so-called "conservative force". Examples include a compressed spring, gravitational potential energy, chemical energy, nuclear energy.
