What happens to stored energy?
The energy stays stored as potential energy until it is discharged into another form of energy.
How much energy is stored in a battery?
Depends on how big it is (button cell, car battery?) and on its chemical type.
Can energy be stored in any metal?
Yes. The metal can be heated up so that it contains thermal energy. If it's perfectly insulated the energy will stay there until it's released. The amount of energy is mass tes temperature rise times specific heat which is a property of each metal.
What is energy stored in food called?
"Stored" is another form of potential energy. You can burn the food to release the potential energy. It is potential, because the food is not a source of kinetic energy until it is in a food fight.
Are batteries examples of mechanical energy?
Perhaps if you throw them. But batteries are normally used for their ability to store CHEMICAL energy.
What energy is stored in foods?
The type of energy that is stored in food is called chemical potential energy.. This energy is stored until it is ready to be used.
What happens to stored energy?
The energy stays stored as potential energy until it is discharged into another form of energy.

Where the energy and food is stored until it i released?
It is in movement
Where the energy in food is stored until it is released?
Mitochondria

Why is ATP an example of chemical potential energy?
It stores energy until a cell needs it. The ATP is an example of chemical potential energy because it stores energy. This energy is stored until cells are in need.
Are batteries examples of mechanical energy?
Perhaps if you throw them. But batteries are normally used for their ability to store CHEMICAL energy.
How is the sugar made during photosynthesis important to the plant and animal?
The sugar made during photosynthesis is important to both plants and animals because it is a source of energy. Sugar is stored in plants or the bodies of animals until it is needed and then converted to an energy.
How is potential energy is stored?
It really depends on the type of potential energy, but basically, just keeping an object in a high energy position, against some force, will store the potential energy. For example, water has more potential energy when it is in a higher position; typically it would be kept in a high position by a dam, until the energy is needed.
