| energy | the ability to do work. In other words, energy is transferred by a force moving an object through a distance. |
| kinetic energy | The energy of motion |
| potential energy | energy that is stored as a result of position or shape. |
| gravitational potential energy | Potential energy that depends upon an object's height |
| elastic potential energy | The potential energy of an object that is stretched or compressed |
| mechanical energy | The energy associated with the motion and position of everyday objects |
| thermal energy | The total potential and kinetic energy of all the microscopic particles in an object make up |
| chemical energy | the energy stored in chemical bonds. When bonds are broken, the released energy can do work. |
| electrical energy | the energy associated with electric charges. |
| electromagnetic energy | a form of energy that travels through space in the form of waves. Visible light and X-rays are examples of electromagnetic energy. |
