There are 6 forms
Mechanical
Thermal
Chemical
Electrical
Electromagnet
Nuclear

Mechanical Energy
Deals with the motion of an object
ExamplesRunningFlipping

Thermal Energy
Made from the atoms moving in an object Atoms are the building blocks of
matter
We associate this with heat
Heat causes the atoms to move faster
Thermal energy is involved when boiling liquids

Chemical Energy Energy stored in bonds of chemical
compounds Chemical compounds are the
combination of atoms and molecules Water is a chemical compound – it is
the combination of oxygen and hydrogen molecules
When you eat, you release chemical energy
Chemical energy could be released during chemical reactions as well.

Electrical Energy
The moving of electrical charges that produces electricity and energy
Examples: Anything that requires
electricity to work…like your TV, your computer

Nuclear Energy Energy that is stored in the nucleus of an atom
from fission of fusion The nucleus is the center of the atom that
contains the protons and neutrons (electrons are found outside of the nucleus)
Fission – one atom SPLITS into two Uranium is usually used in nuclear power
plants The Uranium atom is split to release nuclear
energy
Fusion - two atoms COMBINE into one This only occurs in the sun!!!
