Chemical energy: This is stored inside food, fossils and batteries. Nuclear energy: This is stored inside the nucleus of a atom. Elastic potential energy: Is stored inside anything that is stretched or squashed. Gravitational energy: Is stored inside any object that is higher than its surroundings. |
Examples are: Chemical energy= Energy given off from a energy drink (Caffeine) Nuclear energy= The energy used in WMD`s (Weapons of mass destruction) or Nuclear Bombs. Elastic potential energy= Energy given off from something elastic like a elastic band. Gravitational energy: Like when a ball is dropped and pulled towards the ground. |

Infrared radiation: |
Infrared radiation is energy given off from something using a substance such as Uranium, Plutonium ETC. |

Solids, Liquids and Gases: |
Solids= Particles are close together and not moving Liquids= Particles are slightly close and only moving slightly. Gas= Particles are far away from each other and moving constantly. |
|
|
Thermal Conduction: |
Thermal conduction: Heat energy is transferred through solid materials by conduction. The particles in a solid are always vibrating. When the particles are hotter, they have more energy and so vibrate more. When you heat one end of an object, the particles start vibrating more. The particles collide with neighboring particles. Energy is transferred from one particle to another. Energy can be conducted through the solid by particles colliding with each other. |
