Potential energy is stored energy that an object possesses due to its position, state, or configuration

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 02:59:38 UTC

A rock at the top of a high hill (stored energy) and when released will move fast down the hill (kinetic energy)

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:01:20 UTC

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because it's moving. Essentially, it's the energy of motion.

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:01:41 UTC

Chemical energy is the energy stored within the bonds of atoms and molecules, essentially the energy that holds these particles together

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:02:03 UTC

Light energy can be defined as a type of energy that travels in waves and allows us to see things. It's the energy that comes from sources like the sun, lamps, and flashlights, and it makes objects visible

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:02:27 UTC

Mechanical energy can be defined as the energy of an object due to its motion or its position, which can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy)

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:02:41 UTC

Sound energy is the energy carried by sound waves, which are created by vibrations. It's a form of mechanical energy that travels through mediums like air, water, and solids

Thermal energy, also known as heat energy, is the energy associated with the movement of tiny particles (atoms and molecules) within a substance

Definition

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:03:16 UTC

Electrical energy is the movement or flow of tiny, negatively charged particles called electrons. It's a form of energy that can be used to power many devices, like light bulbs, TVs, and computers.

Water running down a stream has got kinetic energy from moving, and this can generate electricitity (Hydro-power stations)

4vh86k2jqf — 2025-04-28 03:04:24 UTC

An example is a battery like in our fairy lights. Each battery holds numerous chemicals inside it, and when it is placed in an object such as a switch box that has conductors, it creates energy, turning the lights on.

Singing (more detail)

31kellao — 2025-04-28 04:48:26 UTC

When your vocal cords vibrate and fold in the laynx, a muscular organ that is a air passage holding the vocal cords, that creates a vibration that moves through the air.

Rubbing hands together

31kellao — 2025-04-28 04:59:43 UTC

When you rub your hands together 🙏, you move molecules and as they move, they creates vibrations that travel through the air, creating sound.

Fun Fact: Sound can not be produced in space! 🚀
