  • kinetic energy
    moving objects have energy in their kinetic store
  • Gravitational energy
    Objects gain energy in their gravitational potential store when they are lifted above ground
  • Elastic Energy
    objects have energy in their elastic potential store if they are stretched
  • Electrostatic energy
    Objects with charge (like electrons and protons) interacting with one another have energy in their electrostatic store
  • Magnetic energy
    magnetic interacting with each other have energy in thier magnetic store
  • chemical energy
    Objects with energy in their chemical store can release energy in chemical reaction
  • Nuclear Energy
    Atomic nuclei release energy from their nuclear store during nuclear reactions
  • Thermal energy
    All objects have energy in their thermal store, the hotter the object, the more energy it has this store
  • Mechanical pathway
    when a force acts on an object e.g. pulling, pushing, stretching, squashing
  • transfer pathways
    energy is transferred between stores by different energy transfer pathways
  • Electrical Working
    A charge (current) moving through a potential difference e.g. charge flowing around a circuit
  • Heating by particles
    energy s transferred from a hotter object to a colder one
  • Heating by radiation
    energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves e.g. light
  • Example heating
    hot coffee heating up cold hands
