The energy possessed by objects in motion, directly related to their speed and mass. Think of a moving car or a thrown ball.

Energy stored within an object due to its temperature. Hotter objects have more thermal energy than colder ones.

Energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field, like a book held above the ground.

The total energy before the occurrence of a process equals the total energy after the process.

Energy that becomes less useful and harder to use in a system, like heat generated from friction.

Energy transfer due to the movement of an object as a result of a force being applied.

Energy transfer due to the movement of electric charge through a potential difference.

Energy transfer from a hotter object to a colder object.

Energy transfer through waves, such as sound or light.

Energy stored by an object due to its position or state of motion.
