Kinetic energy is present for any mass in motion, so there are not just "five kinetic energies." You can, however identify different modes of motion where kinetic energy is present, such as:
- translational - a body moving in a single direction - a falling body or a body moving through space would be an example of this
- rotational - a body moving around an axis - pendulums are a special case of this where the motion does not complete a full revolution
- vibrational - two bodies connected by something and moving back and forth within a confined space - such as a couple of bodies connected by a spring. Atoms in molecules are subject to this same kind of motion, but the "connection" between them is due to the interatomic forces of attraction and repulsion that form the molecular bond between the atoms.
All other examples of kinetic energy are limited cases of these three or combinations of them.

What is the motion and position energy?
Kinetic, and Potential, energies, respectively.
If you add an objects potential and kinetic energies you get its mechanical energy?
Yes
What quantity is the sum of the kinetic energy and all forms of potential energy in a system?
the total energy U. If there is no work done on the system, Uint= KE+PE
If all were at the same temperature how would the average kinetic energy of the particles compare an iron cube an aluminum cube and a balloon filled with helium gas?
If the two metals are at the same temperature then the atoms in each would have the same average kinetic energy. Temperature is a measure of the "average energy per degree of freedom". To simplify things somewhat, kinetic energy is one of these degrees of freedom and so if they have the same temperature they have the same kinetic energy. Go to the related link below for a fuller understanding of the connection between kinetic energy and temperature.
Can the energies needed to break chemical bonds be measured?
Yes, these energies are measured.
What is all of the kinetic energy?
Thermal energy is the sum of kinetic energies, while temperature is the average of these kinetic energies.
What is the sum of all kinetic energy?
Thermal energy is the sum of kinetic energies, while temperature is the average of these kinetic energies.
Can kinetic energies cancel?
No, kinetic energy cannot cancel.
What is the proper name for energies in action?
action force
What is the main energies of a battering ram?
Kinetic energy.
What terms describes the transfer of energies between objects that have different average thermal kinetic energies?
heat
How is energy in potential and kinetic conserved?
For any object, the summation of its potential and kinetic energies is constant.
What is the difference between thermodynamic and kinetic stability?
Kinetic - how quickly something reacts.Thermodynamic - the energies required.
What is amount of energy an object has in it?
It is the sum of the potential and kinetic energies
What kind of energy is potential and kinetic?
Both are Mechanical energies
What is the motion and position energy?
Kinetic, and Potential, energies, respectively.
An objects mechanical energy is?
the sum of its potential and kinetic energies :)
