Definition:Energy is the capacity of a physical system to perform work. Energy exists in several forms such as heat, kinetic or mechanical energy, light, potential energy, electrical, or other forms.

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy of a system remains constant, though energy may transform into another form. Two billiard balls colliding, for example, may come to rest, with the resulting energy becoming sound and perhaps a bit of heat at the point of collision.

The SI unit of energy is the joule (J) or newton-meter (N * m). The joule is also the SI unit of work.

Elastic potential energy (when the elastic band is stretched.)

Gravitational potential energy (when an object is raised against gravity and before it is dropped it contains stored gravitational energy.)

Technically, the list goes on because every type of energy is potential because it can be converted to a different form of energy. This is because energy cannot be created or destroyed just put into a different form. I.E.: gravitational to kinetic

What you buy energy in?

You can buy energy in different forms; for example, in the form of food, four our body's energy needs; in the form of different types of fuel, such as gasoline for a car (food can be considered fuel for our body); or in the form of electrical energy, which comes to our homes.

When energy changes form some energy is .?

no it says in the law of conservation of energy, energy can not be created or destroyed only changed, but you may loose energy as a different form but you wont gain any


How can the inertia be destroyed?

Inertia can not be destroyed, because inertia is a form of energy and energy can not be created or destroyed it is changed into a different form of energy like light, heat, chemical, or physical energy.
