3. What is Work? Transferring energy Physically moving something From http://www.the-pillow.com.au/resources/how-to-lift.php

4. Kinds of Energy Potential Kinetic Mechanical Chemical Nuclear Electrical Light Heat

5. Potential Energy Stored energy as a result of an object’s position From http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/enlarge/skateboarder-photography.html From http://www.people.vcu.edu/~rgowdy/mod/020/xmp4.htm

6. Two Kinds of Potential Energy Gravitational Potential Energy Elastic Potential Energy

7. Gravitational Potential Energy The energy stored in an object due to its height or distance above the ground From http://www.millnm.com/Health.htm

8. Gravitational potential energy depends on the mass of an object and the height of an object. From http://www.123rf.com/photo_5625011_red-christmas-ornament-ball-on-string-isolated-on-white.html From http://www.countryliving.com/homes/renovation-and-remodeling/building-a-modular-home-0206

9. Elastic Potential Energy The energy stored in an object due to a change in its usual position From http://residents.bowhunting.net/bsdunn/tbd4.htm From http://www.insuranceproviders.com/will-a-trampoline-increase-the-cost-of-my-home-insurance/

10. Elastic potential energy depends on how much an object is changed from its regular position. From http://www.anirudhsethireport.com/tag/rubber-band/ From http://theapplepeeled.com/renters/extending-your-search/

11. Kinetic Energy The energy of an object in motion From http://www.art.com/products/p13981934-sa-i2805894/mountain-biking-downhill.htm

12. Kinetic energy depends on the speed of an object and the mass of an object. From http://www.truckingtruth.com/trucking_blogs/rjensen1918/2008/12/tractor-trailer-brakes-on-fire

14. Potential energy can be translated into kinetic energy. From http://skier.com/ From http://www.visualphotos.com/image/2x3663605/young_skier_standing_on_top_of_hill_looking_at

15. Objects can have neither potential energy or kinetic energy. From http://blog.ajrosecarpets.com/cleaning-tips-floor-care/5-tricks-to-prepare-hardwood-floors-for-winter/

16. Conclusion Potential and Kinetic Two kinds of potential energy They both depend on certain factors Objects can have both, can have neither
