No form of energy is ever created, you can only change one form into another. Waves come in many forms, and all of them carry energy, which can be transformed into other kinds of energy.
Water waves, for instance, carry kinetic energy which can drive a generator to produce electrical energy, as well as waste heat energy. Light energy travels as waves, and this can be changed by a solar cell into electrical energy, or by a plant into chemical energy.

What are the two main types of energy that relate to movement?
kinetic energy kinetic energy (joule) = ½ × mass (kilogram) × speed2 ((metre/second) 2, (m/s)2) and i guess sound energy - the movement of energy through substances in longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
What is transfer of energy through space?
An electromagnetic wave is a oscillation through 2 fields, electrical and magnetic fields of the space the wave is travelling through. These oscillations are at right angles to each other. Electromagnetic waves are carried by miniscule particles of energy called photons, Light itself is one of the forms of electromagnetic waves and all EM waves travel at the speed of light 3x10^8 ms or 300 000 000 metres per second. Photons have 0 mass. Nothing with mass can truly have a higher velocity then the speed of light or EM radiation. As they are carried by photons they need no medium to travel through and can therefore travel through space/a vacuum.
What are two forms of potential energy?
In apex, the answers for 2 potential energies, the answers are Elastic, and Magnetic energy.
Is radiant energy a form of potential energy only?
Neither. It is an electromagnetic radiation, that is one that is part of a whole spectrum or range of radiation of the same basic type, that stretches from long wave radio waves to gamma rays, and includes visible light, microwaves, and x-rays. These all carry energy dependent on the power of the source. Humans react most to the infra red range which is what you feel on your skin in front of a radiant electric fire. Visible light is generally not so powerful and we absorb it in our eyes, but it can be made dangerous as in lasers. Microwave energy is used in cookers where it causes water molecules to vibrate and heat up. Xray and gamma Ray energy is dangerous when more than the safe level, because they cause ionization in the body material which can induce cancer. These are all forms of radiant energy.
What are 2 waves of energy?
As far as I know, all waves carry energy.
What are 2 energy waves that cant be seen?
Heat waves (infared) and sound waves.
If energy cannot be destroyed can it be created?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, considering E=mc^2. Conservation of energy allows for the transformation of energy to different forms. Transformation is not considered creating or destroying, but transforming.
What are 2 forms of energy that relates them to kinetic energy or potential energy?
Two forms: Chemical and Electromagnetic.
Two examples of how waves transmit energy.?
1. Boat rocking in the waves of the ocean, 2. Earthquake knocking over a wall.
What are the two types of energy waves created by an earthquake?
hey i kno this ha ha ha ha ha the two waves are p waves and s waves

What are 2 forces that change coastal land forms?
wind and waves
What 2 forms of energy are created by friction?

How many forms does energy have?

What energy is energy of light?
It's just energy. There really isn't an energy of energy, it's all just different forms of energy. e=mc^2 was an equation by Albert Einstein that suggests that no energy can be created nor destroyed. Everything is energy. However, there are different types of energy. A solar cell can convert light energy into electrical energy, which can be used to make a Bowling ball roll. The ball can then fall and hit the floor and make sound waves and heat. That is conversion and conservation of energy. (Heat is energy too.)
