Energy Stores Overview

Energy is not a physical thing we can see or touch.
Different objects store energy in different energy stores.
There are eight main energy stores: thermal, kinetic, gravitational potential, elastic potential, chemical, nuclear, magnetic potential, and electrostatic potential.

Thermal Energy Store

Any object with a temperature has a thermal energy store.
The higher the temperature, the more energy in the thermal store.
Examples: hot cup of tea, hot bath water, hot radiator.

Kinetic Energy Store

Any moving object has a kinetic energy store.
The faster the movement, the more energy in the kinetic store.
Examples: moving car, train, person walking or running.

Gravitational Potential Energy Store

Objects at a height above the ground have gravitational potential energy.
The larger the height, the more energy in this store.
Examples: book on a high shelf, bird on a high branch.

Elastic Potential Energy Store

Objects like springs or elastic bands stretched or compressed store elastic potential energy.
The greater the extension or compression, the larger the energy store.
Examples: stretched elastic band, spring, hair tie.

Chemical Energy Store

Different chemicals store energy in their chemical energy store.
Examples: food, fuel, batteries.

Nuclear Energy Store

Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom is in the nuclear energy store.
Examples: uranium or plutonium fuel in nuclear power plants.

Magnetic and Electrostatic Potential Energy Stores

Magnetic potential: two magnets held close together store energy.
Electrostatic potential: charges close together (e.g., protons, electrons) store energy.

Larger height = more gravitational potential energy. (e.g., book on a high shelf) - **Elastic potential**: Stretched or compressed objects (springs, elastic bands). Greater extension/compression = more elastic potential energy. (e.g., stretched elastic band) - **Chemical**: Stored in chemicals. (e.g., food, fuel, batteries) - **Nuclear**: Stored in the nucleus of an atom. (e.g., uranium in nuclear power plants) - **Magnetic potential**: Two magnets held close together. (e.g., two magnets near each other) - **Electrostatic potential**: Charges close together.
