8 TYPES OF ENERGY
-
KINECTIC
-
Something moving that has energy stored. Will move from one to another to generate more energy (swinging).
Rollercoasters and swings use kinetic energy, thats why each time you swing you are able to swing higher and higher.
ELECTROSTATIC POTENTIAL
-
Charged particles, proton, neutron, atoms
Related: Charged particles, friction, static energy
ELASTIC POTENTIAL
Caused by: stretching or compressing something. The energy is usually released by the object bouncing and traveling.
-
Basketball, rubber band
THERMAL
-
Light bulbs, stoves, toasters
-
-
GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL
Objects lifted from the ground have a gravitational potential energy ready to be released. The larger the height difference from the ground, the more energy stored.
Energy is something we can't touch nor feel but it powers but things to give it the ability to move and fulfil it's purpose
