Two Types Potential - stored energy Kinetic – motion energy http://image.absoluteastronomy.com/images/encyclopediaimages/n/ne/newtons_cradle_animation_book_2.gif http://www.physicsclassroom.com/mmedia/energy/ie.gif
Types of Potential Energy Chemical – energy stored in bonds of atoms Ex. Biomass, coal, petroleum, etc – converted to thermal energy when burned http://www.suntrek.org/images/hem-powerstation-animating.gif
Types of Potential Energy Nuclear – energy stored in the nucleus of the atom Ex. Fission – splitting nucleii (as in powerplants) Fusion – combining nucleii of atoms (as in sun with hydrogen atoms) Fission Fusion http://www.mwit.ac.th/~physicslab/applet_04/atom2/Kernfan.gif http://media.photobucket.com/image/nuclear%20energy%20animation/quantum_flux/Animations/Nuclear%20Energy/1aFission.gif
Types of Potential Energy Mechanical – energy stored in objects by tension Ex. stretched spring or rubber band http://image.absoluteastronomy.com/images/encyclopediaimages/s/sw/swing_door_operator_animation.gif
Types of Potential Energy Gravitational energy – energy stored in height ex. Hydropower http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_v2T5FtcWTMk/RihI1uN318I/AAAAAAAABHw/0fz4_txIuBA/s320/hydropower-plant-parts.gif
