Lesson 6.2 - Forms of Energy

by Karl McMurtry

​Types of Energy

• ​There are two main categories of energy in physics: kinetic energy and potential energy

• ​Kinetic energy is the energy of motion

• ​Potential energy is stored energy, with the potential to do work

• ​All the different types of energy fall within these two categories
