1. Energy

2. Energy is: The ability to do work 2 Types of energy are:
Kinetic Energy = energy moving or in use
Potential Energy = energy stored or at rest

3. 6 Main Forms of Energy Radiant Chemical Mechanical Electrical Thermal
Nuclear

4. The lowest form of energy is thermal which is caused by friction.
The ultimate beginning form of all energy transformations is nuclear (on the sun)
The form of energy that is always considered intermediate is electrical because it is usually not stored usefully and is made from the transformation of another source.

5. Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy cannot be created
Energy cannot be destroyed
Energy can be transformed (change forms)

6. 10 most common sources of energy
Solar
Coal
Hydro
Nuclear
Biomass
Petroleum & Natural Gas
WInd
Propane
Geothermal

7. The most used energy source is petroleum.
The energy source used to generate most electricity is coal.
Second is nuclear power .

8. 2 Categories of Energy Sources
Renewable which is able to be used over and over again
Nonrenewable which is only able to be used once.

9. Fossil Fuel energy sources include:
Coal
Petroleum
Natural Gas
Propane
