Six Forms of Energy
1. Mechanical Energy: energy due to an object’s motion or position.
Examples: moving object, stationary (still) object
2. Thermal Energy: the total energy of atoms in an object.
Examples: relates to temperature of an object
Absolute Zero (0 Kelvin = -459.6° F) is the coldest temperature (atoms stop moving)!
3. Chemical Energy: the potential energy stored in chemical bonds that hold atoms together.
Examples: food, matches, cells
4. Electrical Energy: the energy produced by moving electric charges.
Examples: electricity (batteries, power lines)
5. Electromagnetic Energy: the energy that travels in waves.
Examples: visible light, UV radiation, microwaves
6. Nuclear Energy: the energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.
Examples: fusion (the Sun), fission (nuclear power plants)
What form of energy is the human using to jump?
Energy conservation- a change from one form of energy to another.
Law of conservation of energy- when one form of energy is converted to another, no energy is destroyed in the process
