WHAT DIFFERENT FORMS OF ENERGY ARE THERE?
Energy exits in many forms:
- Light
- Thermal
- Chemical
- Sound
- Electrical
- Potential
- Kinetic
- Mechanical
explore!
light
Light energy is produced by the sun and is very important for the biosphere There are other natural and artificial light sources, but the sun is the most important.
explore!
thermal
Thermal energy, or heat, is the result of movement of tiny particles within an object. The faster they move the more heat is generated.
Explore!
chemical
Chemical energy is stored energy which is released when a chemical reaction takes place. The chemicals are broken down to produce a different form of energy. Are you feeling hungry? Have some tasty chemical energy. Yum!
explore!
sound
Sound is energy made by vibrations. When an object vibrates, air particles around it vibrate too. This causes sound waves, which we can hear if they reach our ears.
explore!
electrical
Electrical energy is used to power machines because it can be transformed into many different forms.
explore!
potential
Potential energy is stored in objects. When this energy is released, it can do work.
Tips
explore!
kinetic
Kinetic energy is produced by movement. The heavier an object is and the faster it moves, the more kinetic energy it has got. Flowing water has got kinetic energy.
explore!
mechanical
Mechanical energy is the sum of potential and kinetic energy that is used to do work. The force of the water moves the turbines. This is mechanical energy.

2/2
QUESTIONS
When the bow string is pulled backwards, it has potential energy because it wants to return to its original position. When the string is released, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, sending the arrow forward, too. Mechanical energy is the sum of this potential energy and kinetic energy, resulting in movement of the arrow.

Some energy transformations are useful to us, e.g. the chemical energy in a battery is transformed into electrical energy to illuminate a torch lightbulb. When they aren't useful, e.g. heat from the lightbulb, we say the energy is lost or wasted.
