Forms of Energy

There are several forms of energy including potential energy which depends on height or can be associated with stretched or compressed objects. Chemical energy is the energy required to bond atoms together, while nuclear energy is released as light and heat when an atom splits. Kinetic energy and mechanical energy are both associated with motion, such as the movement of turbines. Heat energy causes changes in temperature and phase of matter through energy transformations where one form of energy is changed to another.
