Energy- the ability to cause change in matter.
Kinetic Energy - energy of motion.
Potential Energy - is the energy something has because of its position or condition.
Mechanical Energy - the total potential energy and kinetic energy of an object.
Chemical Energy -energy that can be released by a chemical change.
Electrical Energy - energy that comes from electric current.
