Objects that store electrical energy are called capacitors. Capacitors store energy in an electric field between two conductive plates, which can then be released as needed in a circuit.
When something stores energy, it is often referred to as an energy storage system. These systems can store energy in various forms such as chemical, mechanical, or electrical energy for later use.
Any substance that has an electrical resistance will convert electrical energy to heat - in other words, most substances. The exception are superconductors. A device specifically designed to dissipate electrical energy is called a resistor or resistance.
No, resistors do not store energy. They dissipate electrical energy in the form of heat when current passes through them.
Energy can be stored in batteries, which convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Energy can also be stored in compressed air systems, where air is compressed and stored for later use. Another way to store energy is through gravitational potential energy, where objects are lifted to a higher position to store energy that can later be converted into kinetic energy.
When an electric heater is switched on, electrical energy from the power source is converted into heat energy, which warms up the surroundings. The energy store in the heater increases as it transforms electrical energy into thermal energy.
The store of electrical energy in a circuit is typically found in a component called a capacitor. Capacitors store energy in an electric field when they are charged and release it when needed. They are commonly used in electronic circuits to store energy, smooth voltage fluctuations, and filter noise.
A device that turns chemical energy into electrical energy is called a battery. Batteries store and release electrical energy through chemical reactions happening inside them.

No, resistors do not store energy. They dissipate electrical energy in the form of heat when current passes through them.
Electrical energy can be converted into chemical energy through a process called electrolysis, which involves passing an electric current through a substance (such as water) to break down its molecular components and store the energy in chemical bonds. This process can produce hydrogen gas or other chemical compounds that store the electrical energy for later use in fuel cells or other applications.
Energy can be stored in batteries, which convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Energy can also be stored in compressed air systems, where air is compressed and stored for later use.

No, batteries store and provide electrical energy, not mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is associated with the motion and position of objects, while batteries convert chemical energy into electrical energy to power devices.
You can store it in a battery or by pumping water uphill.
