1
Kinetic and Potential Energy have many forms
2
1. Mechanical Energy - Energy associated with motion or position
3
Examples: most moving objects have mechanical energy
4
2. Thermal Energy (Heat) - Total energy of the particles in an object
5
Example: Heating causes the particles to move faster = more thermal energy
6
3. Chemical energy - Energy stored in chemical bonds
7
Examples: wood, food, gasoline, batteries
8
4. Electrical energy - Energy of moving electrons
9
Example : electric outlet
10
5. Radiant or Electromagnetic (Light) energy Travels in waves
11
Examples: lightbulb, microwave
12
6. Sound energy- Caused by an object’s vibrations
13
Example : guitar, boombox
14
7. Nuclear energy - Potential energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
15
Example : nuclear power plants, sun
16
Energy Conversions - A change from one form of energy to another
18
Conversion example 1 Lamp : electrical energy converts to light energy
19
Conversion example 2: Water heater : Chemical energy of gas to thermal (heat ) energy
20
Conversion example 3: Human body : converts chemical energy in food to mechanical energy
21
Energy is Conserved
22
