1. Energy Types and Forms

2.  Write the Pendulum of Potential and Kinetic Energy in your notebook

3. During energy transfers, forms of energy may also be transformed into other forms of energy.

4. An example: a battery has chemical energy stored inside and can change into electrical energy, that can change into light and heat.

5. Radiant (Light) Energy  energy transmitted in the form of electromagnetic waves (as heat waves, light waves, radio waves, X-rays)

6. Electrical energy  is when electricity creates motion, light or heat. An example of electrical energy is the electric coils on your stove

7. Mechanical Energy  is the energy of motion that does the work. An example of mechanical energy is the wind as it turns a windmill.

8. Sound Energy  is energy produced by sound vibrations

9. Thermal Energy  is energy that is pushed into motion by using heat. An example is a fire in your fireplace

10. Nuclear Energy  the energy released by a nuclear reaction. Fission and fusion

11. Chemical Energy  is energy caused by chemical reactions.

12. Gravitational Energy  is motion that is caused by gravity. An example of gravitational energy is water flowing down a waterfall.
