What are different forms of energy?

Answer»

The energy of a system has many different forms as follows :

  • Kinetic energy which arises due to motion, like rotational, vibrational and translational.
  • Potential energy which arises due to position and state of a matter. If depends upon the temperature of the system.
  • Heat energy (or thermal energy) which is transferred from the hotter body to the colder body.
  • Radiant energy which is associated with electro-magnetic or light radiation.
  • Electrical energy produced in the galvanic cells.
  • Chemical energy stored in chemical substances.

All these various forms of energy can be converted from one form to another without any loss.
