Photosynthesis is the mechanism plants use to transform light energy to chemical energy stored as sugar. Plants require chloroplast, carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis to work. Plants use light/radiant energy to start the process of photosynthesis and to fuel energy storage in sugars. In simple words, radiant energy is stored as food in chemical energy.

- Brianne and John

Sound energy comes from vibrations moving through something solids, liquids, and gasses. -Zofia

When the sound waves are absorbed they become another form of energy. Researchers have developed a way to store sound energy until it is needed so that it will be converted to electrical energy only on demand.
Sound waves are stored digitally through a process called sampling. The amplitude (height) of the wave is measured and stored as a number. They make a longer number that represents the entire wave when all these numbers are written together. The more times the wave is measured, or sampled, the better it sounds during playback.
