Stored energy is known as?

I don't believe there is a special word for stored energy, I would just call it that, "stored energy". Energy of position is called potential energy. For example, if you lift a weight against the force of gravitation, the energy you transfer to the object is stored as gravitational potential energy. At a higher position, it has more of this energy than when it is at a low position.


Particles of light are called what?

Light particles are called Photons.


What is energy potential measured in?

Potential energy can't be measured directly but can be calculated in between two states. Potential energy is also sometimes called as the mechanical energy or stored energy. Every object or body has the ability to have potential energy by different means. Springs carry potential energy when it is compressed or stretched, and when released, all that potential will turn to kinetic energy because the body gains motion. Potential energy always changes into kinetic energy again by different means. Potential energy is calculated by using this expression. Ep = mgh, where m= mass, g= gravity if the body is at height, h= the height.


How is kinetic energy formed?

Kinetic energy is a form of energy that comes from motion. Therefore any moving object (that has a mass!) has kinetic energy. For kinetic energy to be produced, a force must act upon an object to give it an acceleration, to put it in motion. The simplest case is the conversion of potentiel energy to kinetic energy. When an object is far from its "normal" standing position (in this case the ground), it is said to have potential energy. When this object is attracted by the force of gravity, its potential energy is slowly converting into kinetic energy because the objet keeps on accelerating.


The ability to work is called?

Energy. Potential energy is like stored energy: ready-to go. (a cart at the top of a roller coaster hill has a lot of potential energy) Kinetic energy is moving energy: in-motion. (when that cart goes speeding down the hill)
