2. What is Energy  Energy is the ability to cause change. Change in ANYTHING  There are two general types of energy Kinetic energy Potential energy

3. Kinetic Energy  Kinetic Energy is energy of an object due to motion  The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass and speed  As mass and speed increase so does kinetic energy

4. Potential Energy  Potential Energy is the energy that an object has due to its position, condition, or chemical composition. Gravitational potential energy- a ball on a hill Condition- stretching a rubber band Chemical- depends on the chemical bonds ○ As bonds break and new bonds form between atoms, energy can be absorbed or released

5. An object can have kinetic and potential energy at the same time.  When a punter punts the ball it is flying through the air with kinetic energy. As it goes up and down there is a change in gravitational potential energy.

6. Shape Shifting Energy  Energy takes many different forms  Mechanical Energy The sum of an objects kinetic and potential energy.  Sound Energy Kinetic energy caused by the vibration of particles in a medium  Electromagnetic Energy Energy transmitted through space in the form of electromagnetic waves Visible light, x-rays, microwaves

7. Shape Shifting Energy  Electrical Energy Energy that results from the position or motion of charged particles  Chemical Energy Potential energy due to the arrangement of atoms in a molecule  Thermal Energy Kinetic energy of particles The faster particles move and the more particles there are, the higher the thermal energy Heat is transferred from an object at a higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature  Nuclear Energy Energy that comes from the breaking apart of a nucleus of an atom

8. Transformers  Energy can change from one form to another Often times its changes into multiple forms Ex. Fireworks, food

9. Law of Conservation of Energy  Just like mass, energy cannot be created or destroyed
