Types of energy
  1. Light
    1. given off by very hot objects, travels through space as waves, light energy from sun = solar
    2. Sound
      1. Travels in forms of waves, is a form of kinetic energy caused by vibrating objects
      2. Chemical
        1. Stored in chemicals. Is contained in foods, fossil fuels and plants (photosynthesis)
        2. Nuclear
          1. Energy stored in atoms (e.g. uranium)
          2. Gravitational
            1. Energy ready to be used by the force of Gravity
            2. Elastic
              1. Type of energy a stretched or wound-up object has
              2. Kinetic
                1. The energy of a moving object
                2. Electrical
                  1. Transmitted through wires, changes forms through appliances
                  2. Heat
                    1. energy hot objects have, when heat is taken away, the object becomes cooler
                    2. Potential
                      1. Stored energy
