NUCLEAR ENERGY
MAGNETIC ENERGY
KINETIC ENERGY
SOUND ENERGY
THERMAL ENERGY
Energy found in the nucleus of an atom released by nuclear reactions. Examples can be found in nuclear power stations or atomic bombs.
Magnetic energy is energy related to magnets or electromagnets.
Anything that moves has kinetic energy, such as cars, runners, bullets. The faster something moves or the more mass it has, the more kinetic energy it has.
Energy that is released by vibrating objects is sound energy. The larger the vibrations, the more sound energy is released.
Thermal energy, also known as heat energy, is caused by the vibration of the particles in a substance. The hotter something is, the more thermal energy it has.
ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY
LIGHT ENERGY
Forms of Energy
GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY
ELECTRICAL ENERGY
CHEMICAL ENERGY
The energy found in objects that are squashed or stretched. Examples are compressed springs and stretched elastic bands.
Light energy is also known as radiant energy. This can be found in all types of electromagnetic radiation.
Any object that is raised up has gravitational energy. It depends on the strength of gravity, the mass, and the height of the object.
This is energy found in moving charges or static electrical charges. Examples can be found in lightning or any electrical circuit.
Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds between atoms and molecules. This energy can be released by chemical reactions, such as combustion.
