    • fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas are non-renewable- made from burning ancient organic matter
    • Solar energy is the process of harnessing the sun's radiation and converting it into electricity using photovoltaic cells.
    • Biomass refers to organic materials like wood, crops and agricultural waste. These things can be burned to create energy.
    • Geothermal energy uses heat below the earth's surface.
    • kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses while in motion.
    • Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or shape.
    • Gravitational potential energy is stored in an object relative to its position in a gravitational field. The higher an object is lifted, the greater its gravitational potential energy.
    • Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in an elastic object, such as a stretched spring or a compressed rubber ball. It is released when the object returns to its original shape or position.
