The+Great+Energy+Story!!

Get to know your energy with Charlie!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!! Have you ever wondered what all of the names of energy were? I know that we have! I do not know all the types of energy that there are, but I do know almost all of them. Each type of energy has a story.So here are some types of energy and a short definition on what they do and how they work!
 * 1) Potential energy- the energy of an object that is brought into place because of its position and shape
 * 2) Kinetic energy-is the energy of all the motion in an object. Formula is mv^2/2
 * 3) Gravitational Potential energy- the energy that is found when weight and height are mutipled
 * 4) Mechanical energy- is the total energy when potential and kinetic energy are added
 * 5) Thermal energy- the total energy of particle that are in an object
 * 6) Chemical energy-the energy formed when chemical compounds change when the atoms of the object rearrange themselves
 * 7) Electrical energy- energy that forms when the energy of the electrons move
 * 8) Sound energy-made when the object vibrates and air around the object transmits energy
 * 9) Light energy-formed when electrically charged atoms vibrate
 * 10) Radiant energy-the energy that is or makes up electromagnetic waves
 * 11) Heat energy-is made when atoms move in soilds, liquids, or gases. It can be transfered between objects!
 * 12) Nuclear energy-that involves a change in the nucleus to happen;when the nuclei joins another and the nucleus splits
 * 13) Wind energy- made when kinetic energy in the air is converted into electrical energy
 * 14) Biomass energy-Plants store energy, so when they are burned they create the energy called biomass
 * 15) Geothermal energy-is thermal energy that has been heated within the crust of the Earth
 * 16) Solar energy-When sunlight is changed or converted into electrical energy
 * 17) Water(hydroelectricity energy)-falling water when in a generator goes form kinetic to electrical energy.

Other facts about energy, of a factors that play in with energy. Examples will also be included:
 * 1) Energy is the ability to do work
 * 2) Energy Conservationis when energy changes from one energy form, and into another
 * 3) A hair dryer is an example of energy conservation
 * 4) Machines are things that make work easier in a way because they size or diect force that is needed for doing work
 * 5) A bicycle is an example of a machine that makes work easier
 * 6) Machines convert energy, a great example is a gasoline tank
 * 7) Energy efficiency is the comparsion of energy before convertion, and the useful energy afterwords
 * 8) Friction is a force opposing motion involving two surfaces in contact
 * 9) The law of conservation of energy tells you that energy can not be made or destroyed in any way
 * 10) Perpetual motion is impossible because a machine would have to put out exactly as much energy as it takes in
 * 11) Perpetual motion is impossible because it needs a non-stop flow of energy
 * 12) Energy resources are natural resources that can convert from humans into other energy forms to do work
 * 13) Non-renewable resources are formed thousand of years ago and only form again over thousands of years. These resources can not be reused or replaced after they have been used. Examples that are common are coal, petroleum,and natural gas
 * 14) Fossil fuels are energy resources made by buried organisms that stored energy
 * 15) Kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy by an electric generator(usuall part of a larger process)
 * 16) Renewable resources can be reused and even replace in a short amount of time. Example that are common in renewable energy are solar and wind energy

Below, I have put a graph that gives a form of energy a energy resource. These forms of energy are what creates these energy resources. This chart was shown my the science teacher(Mrs.Laguna).
