  1. What is Energy? Different Kinds of Energy

  2. What is Energy? • The ability to make things move

  3. Can you make things move? • Then you have energy… • …but there are seven different kinds of energy…

  4. Chemical Energy • What holds atoms in molecules together • Can be released by chemical reactions like burning wood

  5. Electrical Energy • The movement of electrons through matter • Electricity is a form of electrical energy

  6. Heat Energy • The random motion, or vibration, of atoms in matter • The faster the atoms vibrate the more heatenergy they have

  7. Light Energy • The energy carried by light • Yes, whenever you are looking at light, you are looking at energy

  8. Mechanical Energy • The energy of moving things • When you ride a bike you use mechanical energy

  9. Nuclear Energy • Holds protons and neutrons together in an atom’s nucleus • Powers the sun and nuclear power plants

  10. Sound Energy • Vibrates air molecules • The air molecules move tiny bones in your ear • The message of sound then moves to your brain • Can also vibrate objects

  11. Energy can be changed from one form to another • Chemical energy in gasoline is changed to heat energy and then to mechanical energy in a car
