    Energy is the ability to do work or cause change and exists in multiple forms including kinetic, potential, thermal, chemical, electrical, electromagnetic, sound, and nuclear. Potential energy is stored energy due to an object's position, like a stretched rubber band or vase on a shelf. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion from an object's movement, like a running person. A waterfall has both potential energy from its height and kinetic energy once the water is falling. Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed from one form to another, according to the law of conservation of energy.

    What is Energy?

    What is Energy?
    The ability to do work or cause change.
    What are the different forma of
    Energy?
    What are the different forms of
    Energy?

    • Energy has a number of different forms,


    all of which measure the ability of an
    object to do work on or change another
    object.

    • In other words, there are different ways


    that an object can possess energy.
    What are the different forms of
    Energy?
    • Kinetic Energy Mechanical
    • Potential Energy Energy
    • Thermal, or heat energy
    • Chemical Energy
    • Electrical Energy
    • Electrochemical Energy
    • Electromagnetic Energy (light)
    • Sound Energy
    • Nuclear Energy
    Define Potential Energy
    Define Potential Energy

    Potential energy is energy due to position


    or stored energy. Potential energy is also
    called gravitational potential energy.
    Give an example of potential
    energy
    Give an example of potential
    energy
    By stretching a rubber band, you give it
    potential energy. A vase on a shelf has
    stored potential energy. A football being
    held by a quarterback has potential
    energy until it is thrown and it turns into
    kinetic energy.
    Define Kinetic Energy
    Define Kinetic Energy
    Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
    Kinetic energy is measured by how much
    is work done to put an object in motion
    or to rest.
    Give an example of kinetic
    energy
    Give an example of kinetic
    energy

    A basketball player has kinetic energy. The


    movements that she does show the energy
    that is being displayed while she is
    moving. When you are running, walking,
    or jumping, your body is exhibiting
    kinetic energy.
    Give an example of something
    that has both potential and kinetic
    energy.
    Give an example of
    something that has both
    potential and kinetic energy.
    A waterfall has both kinetic and potential
    energy. The water at the top of the
    waterfall has stored potential energy.
    Once the water leaves the top of the
    waterfall, the potential energy is changed
    into kinetic energy.

    Describe Conservation of Energy

    Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can


    only be changed from one of form of energy
    to another form. 
    The amount of energy stays the same.
