yes because you yourself can make or create thermal and light energy. potential energy is pretty much like mechanical energy which is energy man made.

What are three different forms of energy being transformed from the potential chemical energy of wood in a campfire?
thermal, light, and chemical
Which forms of energy is released when wood is burned?
Chemical potential energy is released as heat, light, and sound when wood is burnt.
Is chemical energy potential energy?
Yes and no. Yes before the reaction, No after the reaction.There is potential chemical energy among constituent substances in an exothermic reaction - such as in Hydrogen and Oxygen. When the chemicals combine, the reaction liberates thermal energy that was stored as potential chemical energy before the reaction.During the chemical reaction, the potential energy is converted into thermal (and perhaps other forms, such as light) energy.After the chemical reaction, the thermal energy is disspiated, and the potential energy is gone.
What are seven forms of energy other than fossil fuels?
Kinetic, Electrical, Thermal, Light, Chemical, Sound and Gravitational potential
What are light electricity and heat?
Light, electricity and heat are forms of energy. Light and electricity are forms of electromagnetic energy. Heat is thermal energy.
What are the 10 forms of energy?
They are; Kinetic Energy (from moving objects), Gravitational Potential Energy (possessed by anything on a height), Elastic Potential Energy (possessed by squashed or stretched objects), Electrical, Magnetic, Mechanical, Heat/Thermal, Nuclear, Chemical, and Light.
Give five Example of forms of energy?
Potential,Kinetic,Light,Sound,Electric,Mechanical,Gravitational Force Potential Examples of changing Energy Light to electric, electric to mechanical, mechanical to sound
Is thermal energy potential energy?
Radiant Energy is not potential energy. They are two different things. Radiant energy is another word to say light energy. Potential energy is when an object not moving. To be specific, an object sitting on a shelf collects kinetic energy so when you knock it over, it falls because of gravity.
What happens to the potential energy of the resulting compound when a chemical bond forms?
The potential energy is transformed to heat or light energy
How many forms of energy are they?
thermal , light , electrical , chemical , mechanical , sound
What type of energy changes take place when a candle burns?
Chemical energy changes into thermal energy and light energy.
What forms of energy are there?
There are many forms of energy such as1:Kinetic energy. 2:Potential energy.3:Nuclear energy. 4:Heat energy.5:Chemical energy. 6:Light energy. ETCETRA
