Students will learn about different forms of energy including mechanical, thermal, electrical, chemical, nuclear, and electromagnetic energy. Mechanical energy involves the motion of objects, thermal energy involves the motion of particles inside objects, electrical energy involves the motion of electrons, chemical energy involves bonds between atoms, nuclear energy exists inside atom nuclei, and electromagnetic energy travels in waves.
