Types of Energy - complete the chart

Energy is due to position or movement of an object - Kinetic and Potential

Forms of energy	What is it?	Example?
Kinetic energy	Energy in movement	Wind,water and electricity
Mechanical energy	Makes things move by workable moving part or parts	Wind up toy, scissors
Thermal energy	different forms such as chemical energy, electrical energy, heat	Fire,
Magnetic energy	Energy from attraction of objects made of iron	resonance imaging, or MRI, machine,
Electrical energy	An example:Lightning. Electrical charges moving through a wire or electricity. Static electricity.	A charged wire is called current, or more commonly, electricity.
Potential energy	Stored Energy	chemical,and nuclear energy
Gravitational energy	Energy stored in objects held above the earth’s surface	It is associated with gravity or gravitational force.
Elastic energy	Elastic energy occurs when objects are compressed and stretched, or generally deformed in any manner.	Slingshot,
Chemical energy	stored in the bonds of chemical compounds (atoms and molecules)	Batteries, biomass, petroleum, natural gas,
Nuclear energy	The energy released during nuclear fission or fusion especially when used to generate energy.	Nuclear power plant - provides electricity
