Delve into the various forms of energy including light, heat, sound, mechanical, gravitational, electrical, chemical, kinetic, and potential energy. Learn how energy transfer occurs and shapes our world.
E N D
Energy • Helps us do things. It is the power to change things.
Light Energy • Type of energy carried by light rays that we used to see.
Heat Energy • Energy that produces warmth.
Sound Energy • Energy carried by sound waves; movement of energy that you can hear.
Mechanical Energy • Energy that causes movement of objects and substances from one place to another.
Elastic Energy • Energy that is stored in something that stretches.
Gravitational Energy • Energy stored in an object’s height. The higher and heavier the object, the more gravitational energy is stored.
Electrical Energy • Energy that moves through conductors or wires.
Chemical Energy • Energy stored in a substance and released during a chemical reaction such as burning wood, coal, or oil.
Kinetic Energy • Any object which has motion.
Potential Energy • Energy stored in an object because of it position.
Energy Transfer • Energy changing from one type of energy to another when moving from one object to another.
