Nature of Energy

By Matias, Aleksia, Elliott, and Keandre

Potential Energy

Energy

The ability to do work or cause change is called energy. The two kinds of energy are kinetic and potential energy.

What is Energy?

Potential Energy

Potential energy is energy ready and waiting for use. The energy that a ball has when perched at a top of a steep hill while it is about to roll down is an example of potential energy.

Kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is equal to half of an object's mass multiplied by the velocity squared.

Mass and speed influence kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy

Major Forms of Energy

Mechanical energy is the energy of objects in motion.

Thermal energy is the energy of moving particles(heat).

Chemical energy is the energy stored in fuel.

Electrical energy is the energy moving through a wire.

Electromagnetic energy is energy with both electric and magnetic properties.

Nuclear energy is energy stored in an atoms nucleus.
