8 TYPES OF ENERGY
THERMAL
CHEMICAL
KINECTIC
NUCLEAR
MAGNETIC POTENTIAL
ELECTROSTATIC POTENTIAL
ELASTIC POTENTIAL
GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL
Caused by chemical reactions and chemical effects.
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
Batteries and food are examples of chemical energy. Powers robots and human respectively.
Something moving that has energy stored. Will move from one to another to generate more energy (swinging).
Made through the generation of heat.
Light bulbs, stoves, toasters
Rollercoasters and swings use kinetic energy, thats why each time you swing you are able to swing higher and higher.
Related: Atoms
Caused by: stretching or compressing something. The energy is usually released by the object bouncing and traveling.
A material made of rubber usually promotes this
Basketball, rubber band
When two or more charges are close together they create energy.
Related: temperature (usually heat)
Related: Atoms, nucleus
The energy is stored in the nucleus of the atom
Charged particles, proton, neutron, atoms
Related: Charged particles, friction, static energy
Two magnets close together can store energy
Related: North and South sides of the magnet
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.
