The document discusses different types of energy: - Kinetic energy is the energy of motion and examples include moving water, wind, and electricity conducted by moving electrons. - Potential energy is stored energy, with examples being oil in a barrel or water in a lake above ground. It has the potential to do work if released. - Energy can change forms, like the kinetic and potential energy exchanged on a roller coaster ride. - Other types include mechanical, heat, chemical, electrical, gravitational, and more. Mechanical energy powers motion while heat energy comes from applying heat. Chemical and electrical energies result from chemical reactions and electricity.
