TYPES OF ENERGY

MECHANICAL ENERGY

• Consists of potential and kinetic energy
• Is the energy of an object due to its position

THERMAL ENERGY

• All particles in matter possess some sort of kinetic energy
• Is the sum of kinetic energies of an object

ACOUSTIC ENERGY

• Transmission of energy through matter by particle oscillation
• Moves in waves
• Moves through the air and through matter through vibrations

ELECTRICAL ENERGY

• Sources are found in the excess, lack, or the movement of electrons
