This interactive guide examines the various forms of energy, including kinetic, potential, mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, electromagnetic, and nuclear energy. Understand energy as the ability to perform work and learn about energy transformations that occur when energy changes from one form to another. Engage with slides that detail the properties and examples of each energy type, and practice identifying these forms through quizzes. By doing so, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of energy in the physical world.

Energy Forms and Transformations Objective: Examine the various forms of energy in order to identify and describe specific energy transformations.
DIRECTIONS: Use the information contained on the following slides to complete your “Energy Concept Web”. Advance to the next slide by clicking your mouse or by pressing the “down arrow” key one time.
Energy • the “stuff” that makes “stuff do stuff” OR • the ability to do work. (W=F x D) (F=force d=distance)
Types (kinds) of Energy • KE (kinetic energy) • PE (potential energy)
Forms of energy • Mechanical • Heat/Thermal • Chemical • Electrical • Electromagnetic • Nuclear
Mechanical Energy • Energy of motion or position • Sound, wind, waterfall, compressed spring • KE or PE • Not 100% efficient much lost to heat
Heat/Thermal Energy • The internal motion of an objects atoms and molecules. • Measured by temperature. • The faster particles move, the more thermal energy they have. • KE only
Chemical Energy • Energy stored by chemical bonds in an object. • When bonds are broken energy is released. • PE only • gasoline, food, coal, wood
Electrical Energy • Moving electrical charges. • Electricity • from batteries, power lines, lightning • KE
Electromagnetic Energy • energy that travels in waves; have electrical and magnetic properties • Light, Magnetism, X-Rays, Radio waves, microwaves, ultraviolent and infrared radiation • KE
Nuclear Energy • Energy stored in center(nucleus) of an atom • Fission (breaking apart) • Fusion (forming) • The sun • Most powerful • PE only
