1. Forms of Energy

2. Forms of Energy 1. All energy falls into two categories:
Potential: stored energy and energy of position
Kinetic: motion of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules, humans, animals and objects.

3. 2. What Forms of Energy Are There?
POTENTIAL
KINETIC
Chemical Energy
Nuclear Energy
Gravitational Energy
Radiant Energy
Electrical Energy
Mechanical
Sound
Thermal Energy

4. How will we ever remember these?!
Just remember the sentence: Cam Newton got really excited making stinky tacos.

5. Cam= Chemical Newton= Nuclear Got= Gravitational Really= Radiant Excited= Electrical Making= Mechanical Stinky= Sound Tacos= Thermal

6. Instructions Read each slide.
Write the name of the kind of energy on your paper, with the letter it goes with (from the memory trick!).
Write and/or sketch an example or two of that kind of energy.

7. 1. Cam=Chemical Energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules.
Example: Matches, Digestion, batteries

8. 2. Newton= Nuclear
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom. The energy that holds the nucleus together.
Example: Breaking down Uranium

9. 3. Got= Gravitational
Energy of place or position. Higher=more gravitational energy.
Example: two plants at different heights

10. 4. Really= Radiant
Example: Visible Light
Electromagnetic energy that travels in waves like light.

11. 5. Excited= Electrical
Movement of electrons.
Example: lamp, computer

12. 6. Making= Mechanical
The movement of a substance from one place to another. Motion.
Example: Riding a bike

13. 7. Stinky = Sound Movement of energy through substances in waves.
Example: bell

14. 8. Tacos= Thermal
The vibration or movement of atoms and molecules. Heat.
Example: stove boiling water
