The chemical potential.
When wood is burnt, the chemical potential energy is released. It changes into heat and light energy.
When we formed a closed circuit, the chemical potential energy in dry cells is released. It changes into electrical energy.
when we carry out respiration, the chemical potential energy in food is released for us to do work.
Gravitational🌑
-
Definition
gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position from the ground
-
Elastic☻
-
the energy is stored until the force is removed and the object springs back to its original shape then elastic potential energy converts into kinetic energy
examples:
-
a bent diving board or a bent plastic ruler has elastic potential energy before it springs back to its original shape
When the rubber band of a slingshot is stretched, it has EPE. This stored energy can then be used to make a rock move
When the key of a wind-up toy car is turned, the spring inside of it is compressed and has EPE. The stored energy will then convert to its original shape and causes the toy car to move
