Potential Energy.
Potential Energy.
That is called potential energy. For example, in the case of gravitational potential energy: If an object is raised, its potential energy increases.
Thermal Energy is the kind of energy that is related to and/or caused by heat
Gravitational potential energy
Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position . Examples of potential energy are gravitational, chemical and electrical.
Well, yes; it is usually called "sound energy", but since it consists of movement of atoms, or pressure differences, it can also be considered a special kind of kinetic energy.Well, yes; it is usually called "sound energy", but since it consists of movement of atoms, or pressure differences, it can also be considered a special kind of kinetic energy.Well, yes; it is usually called "sound energy", but since it consists of movement of atoms, or pressure differences, it can also be considered a special kind of kinetic energy.Well, yes; it is usually called "sound energy", but since it consists of movement of atoms, or pressure differences, it can also be considered a special kind of kinetic energy.
Chemical energy is a kind of potential energy - energy related to the position, or more accurately, work done to move an object against a conservative force.Chemical energy is a kind of potential energy - energy related to the position, or more accurately, work done to move an object against a conservative force.Chemical energy is a kind of potential energy - energy related to the position, or more accurately, work done to move an object against a conservative force.Chemical energy is a kind of potential energy - energy related to the position, or more accurately, work done to move an object against a conservative force.
Stored energy is usually potential energy, but it can be kinetic, such as a spinning flywheel. The energy of position is usually gravitational potential energy.
If the change of position is horizontal, then there's no energy involved. If it's a vertical change, then gravitational potential energy changes.
The energy of motion is called kinetic energy.
The energy of motion is called kinetic energy.
potential energy is found in things like a compressed spring, or a weight that has been raised to drive a clock. In it's static position, before the energy is released, it is being "stored". It usually changes into "kinetic" energy, causing something to move, or giving it momentum. Some of that energy will also be consumed by friction in the mechanism creating thermal energy.
