Potential and Kinetic (see notes in notebook)
Chemical energy-given off during chemical reactions when bonds are broken
Electrical energy-produced by moving charges, like lightning
Heat energy-energy transferred by colliding particles like when friction warms your hands when you rub them together
Sound energy-produced by vibrating air particles
Mechanical energy-energy in moving objects like windmills turning to pump water out of the ground
Nuclear energy-released when forces holding nucleus of the atom together are overcome, like when the sun produces energy through nuclear reactions changing hydrogen to helium by the process of fusion
Radiant energy- energy that travels in waves. This is how energy created by the sun travels to the earth through space
