Day 3: Forms of Energy
Forms of Energy1. All energy falls into two categories:• Potential: stored energy and
energy of position• Kinetic: motion of waves,
electrons, atoms, molecules and substances.
2. What Forms of Energy Are There?
POTENTIAL KINETIC
Chemical EnergyNuclear EnergyGravitational Energy
Radiant EnergyElectrical EnergyMechanicalSoundThermal Energy
How will we ever remember these?!
Just remember the sentence: Cam Newton got really excited making stinky tacos.
Cam= Chemical
Newton= Nuclear
Got= Gravitational
Really= Radiant
Excited= Electrical
Making= Mechanical
Stinky= Sound
Tacos= Thermal
1. Cam=Chemical
Example: Matches, Digestion, batteries
•Energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules.
2. Newton= Nuclear• Energy stored
in the nucleus of an atom. The energy that holds the nucleus together. Example: Breaking
down Uranium
3. Got= Gravitational• Energy of
place or position. Higher=more gravitational energy.
Example: two plants at different heights
4. Really= Radiant
•Electromagneticenergy that travels in waves like light.
Example: Visible Light
5. Excited= Electrical
•Movement of electrons.
Example: lamp, computer
6. Making= Mechanical• The
movement of a substance from one place to another. Motion.Example: Riding a
bike
7. Stinky = Sound
•Movement of energy throughsubstancesin waves.
Example: bell
8. Tacos= Thermal
• The vibrationor movement of atoms and molecules. Heat.Example: stove boiling water
