No because the bus is the one that moves not the person. If the person was moving inside the bus it will be kinetic energy.
Compare And Contrast Kinetic And Potential Energy. Does A Person Standing Motionless In The Aisle Of A Moving Bus Have Kinetic Energy? Explain.
Potential energy is energy with when the body is at rest and at a height.The formula of Potential energy is given by P= mgh.The kinetic energy is given when the body is in motion.The formula of kinetic energy is given by K= 1/2 m v^2.
A man standing is the aisle of a moving bus has a potential energy with respect to the bus but has a kinetic energy with respect to the ground.So it depends with what you are comparing to.Hope this helps.
