The two main states of energy are kinetic and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work in the future.
Yes, that's correct. The potential energy stored in foods and fuels is released when these substances are burned or metabolized, converting the potential energy into forms such as heat, light, or mechanical energy.
When you place a ball at the top of a hill and it accelerates toward the bottom, it experiences both gravitational potential energy being converted into kinetic energy as it moves down the hill, and air resistance or friction acting as opposing forces to its motion.
That depends a lot on how the particle was moving in the first place, and how the energy is added.
An electrical motor converts electrical energy into kinetic energy by using magnetic fields to produce motion in a mechanical component, such as a rotor or shaft. This conversion process allows the motor to drive various machines and devices by transferring motion based on the flow of electricity through the system.

When objects collide or touch, kinetic (mechanical) energy can be transferred.

When you rub your hands together quickly, the kinetic energy is primarily converted to heat energy due to the friction generated between your hands. This friction causes the molecules in your hands to move faster, resulting in an increase in temperature.
Molecules have more kinetic energy when they are moving. This energy is proportional to their speed and mass, making them collide with each other and their surroundings.
When heat energy is added, the speed of the molecules increases. This increase in speed leads to a higher kinetic energy and results in a rise in temperature of the substance.
When you eat food, your body uses chemical energy from the nutrients in the food to convert it into mechanical energy that powers your muscles and movement. This process involves breaking down the food into smaller molecules through digestion and then using these molecules to generate energy through a series of biochemical reactions in your cells.
