Is coal potential or kinetic energy?

Coal stores chemical energy, which is a type of potential energy.


Is coal a nuclear or motion energy?

Coal is a fossil fuel, which possesses potential chemical energy. It is not nuclear or kinetic


The conversion of potential energy in coal into the kinetic energy that heats steam is an expression of?

the first law of thermodynamics


What are all the different types of energy?

All of the different types of energy are the following: -Nuclear -coal -oil -gas -solar -geothermal.


Does coal store chemical kinetic energy?

No. It stores potential chemical energy and burning it produces an exothermic reaction as it oxidises.


Does coal have stored potential energy?

I believe the answer would be yes. All matter has stored potential energy, as this energy can be defined as the "potential" to move or perform some other action. Usually when we talk about potential energy we're talking about an object's ability to convert this energy into "kinetic energy," which is the energy an object has when it moves. Example:If a rollercoaster is at the top of a hill on the track, it has a lot of potential energy because it's going very slowly. However, when it crests the rise and begins its descent, this potential energy is gradually converted to kinetic energy as it moves faster and faster.+++Yes coal does have potential chemical energy (combustion is a chemical reaction).


Does fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?

Fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?


How do coal emits energy?

It's kinetic


Does a pile of coal have potential energy?

i think it does cause coal is made out of rocks that get burned so it does have potential energy


Is coal a form of potential energy?

yes. chemical potential energy


What energy does coal have?

Coal has potential chemical energy which is released as heat when it is burned.


True or false potential energy is energy that is stored or is available for use by a body for example coal has potential energy that is released only when it is burned?

True, in the case of coal it is potential chemical energy
