Types of Energy
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Energy changes from one kind to another.
The total energy of a system never changes.
Anything that has mass and movement has kinetic energy.
The kinetic energy of an object in this case is given by the relation:
KE = (1/2)mv2
m=mass of the object
V=velocity of the object
The greater the mass or velocity of a moving object, the more kinetic energy it has.
The greater the mass or velocity of a moving object, the more kinetic energy it has.
Potential energy is the energy stored in a system. It is the energy that can be released to become kinetic or another form.
PE = mgh
PE = Energy (in Joules)
m = mass (in kilograms)
g = gravitational acceleration of the earth (9.8 m/sec2)
h = height above earth's surface (in meters)
Mechanical energy is also the total amount of kinetic and potential energy
in a system.
Wind-up toys, grandfather clocks, and pogo sticks are examples of
mechanical energy. Wind power uses mechanical energy to help create
electricity.
Potential energy + Kinetic energy =

What is Electrical Energy?• Energy caused by the movement of electrons
• Easily transported through power lines and converted into other forms of energy
What is Chemical Energy? Energy that is available for release from chemical reactions.
The chemical bonds in a matchstick store energy that is transformed into thermal energy and electromagnetic energy when the match is struck.
Examples of Stored Chemical Energy
Nuclear energy is the energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.
What is Nuclear Energy?
Summary of Energy-Part 1
Mechanical Energy•Energy of Motion and Position of everyday objects.
Electrical Energy•The energy associated with electric charges.
Chemical Energy•Energy stored in chemical bonds.
Summary of Energy-Part 2
Electromagnetic Energy•Energy that travels through space in the form of waves.
Nuclear Energy•The energy stored in atomic nuclei
Thermal Energy•Heat Energy.
