in food there are calories which is the amount of energy the food has.

in fuel there is no actual name for the energy because there are so many measurements of energy, and that includes calories.

Is the energy stored in food heat energy?

Energy is stored in many ways. Energy is stored in food. We eat the food to get energy. Energy can also be stored in other ways, such as batteries.Sources of stored energy take many forms like food, fuel and batteries. All energy on the Earth comes from the Sun.Heat from the sun warms everything on the Earth. Light and heat are forms of energy, which come directly from the Sun. Plants, use the energy from sunlight to make food. Energy from the sun is stored in leaves, stems, roots and fruits. When an animal eats plants it gets the energy stored inside the plant.Animals eat plants and get the energy stored in plant tissues. They utilize this energy for various activities like running, climbing, hunting and keeping warm. Food we eat contains energy to power our bodies.Fuels such as oil and coal contain huge amounts of energy. Energy released from these fuels, wind and water can be changed into electricity. Energy is needed for almost all activities that make up our lives.thank u . . :-)


The energy in petroleum and coal is stored as what type of energy?

it is stored as something called prototype energy which is energy, a little more abundant than fossil fuels. +++ "prototype energy" doesn't exist. The energy stored in any fossil fuel, or in materials like wood, is potential chemical energy,


What happened to the energy from a fuel that is not to perform work?

Because the fuel is not used its energy is called potential energy and remains stored in the fuel until something initiates the process of ignition or energization.

What is the energy of food and other fuel is potential energy?

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or composition, which can be converted into other forms of energy like kinetic energy when the object is in motion. In the case of food and fuel, the energy they contain is in the form of potential energy stored in their chemical bonds, which is released and utilized as kinetic energy through processes like metabolism or combustion.
