3. What is Potential Energy?
Energy that is stored and waiting to be used later

4. What is Gravitational Potential Energy?
Potential energy due to an object’s position
P.E. = mass x
height x gravity
Don’t look down, Rover!
Good boy!

5. What is Elastic Potential Energy?
Potential energy due compression or expansion of an elastic object.
Notice the ball compressing
and expanding

6. What is Chemical Potential Energy?
Potential energy stored within the chemical bonds of an object

7. What is Kinetic Energy? Energy an object has due to its motion
K.E. = .5(mass x speed2)

8. Forms of Energy
Mechanical Energy – energy associated with the motion and position of everyday objects.

9. Thermal energy – the total potential and kinetic energy of all particles in an object.

10. Chemical energy – energy stored in chemical bonds.

11. Electrical energy – energy associated with electric charges.

12. Electromagnetic energy – energy that travels in waves.

13. Nuclear energy – the energy stored in atomic nuclei.
