2. What it´s energy ???
•Energy is the ability of
an object to transform
itself or to produce
changes in other
objects.
3. Mechanical
Kinetic
• Exists as a
movement, all the
things that can move
has kinetic energy,
how much kinetic
energy has an object
depends on its mass
and velocity.
Potential
• Exists as a potential
movement, as higher
is an object has more
or less potential
energy, how much
potential energy has
an object depends
on its mass and
position.
4. Chemical
Chemical energy is stored in
certain chemical substances.
Example:Pasta.
It breaks down the
carbohydrates into sugar for
energy.
5. Electrical
Electrical energy is energy in the form of
electricity.
Is the most common form of energy in
industries and at homes.
We distribute this energy throug metal wires,
we can store this energy in batteries.
6. Thermal
Is energy in the form of heat.
When an object gains thermal energy it heats
up.
When an object releases it cools down.
7. Light
o Light energy is energy in the form of light.
o The sun is a natural source of light.
o Electric lamp and torches are artificial sources
of light.
8. Nuclear
Nuclear energy is stored in the atomic
structure of all matter.
Scientis can release this by breaking down
radioactive materials like: uranium
When that happens it produce a nuclear
reaction.
