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
