Energy | Conservative quantify | Unit |
---|---|---|
is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light. | Energy is a conserved quantity - the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed. | The unit of measurement for energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule (J). |
Type of Energy | Type of Energy | Type of Energy |
---|---|---|
Mechanical the sum of macroscopic translational and rotational kinetic and potential energies | Ionization potential energy that binds an electron to its atom or molecule | Sound wave kinetic and potential energy in a material due to a sound propagated wave (a particular type of mechanical wave) |
Electric potential energy due to or stored in electric fields | Nuclear potential energy that binds nucleons to form the atomic nucleus (and nuclear reactions) | Radiant potential energy stored in the fields of waves propagated by electromagnetic radiation, including light |
Magnetic potential energy due to or stored in magnetic fields | Chromodynamic potential energy that binds quarks to form hadrons | Rest potential energy due to an object's rest mass |
Gravitational potential energy due to or stored in gravitational fields | Elastic potential energy due to the deformation of a material (or its container) exhibiting a restorative force as it returns to its original shape | Thermal kinetic energy of the microscopic motion of particles, a kind of disordered equivalent of mechanical energy |
Chemical potential energy due to chemical bonds | Mechanical wave kinetic and potential energy in an elastic material due to a propagating oscillation of matter |
