Electrical Energy — energy from the flow or presence of electric charge; energy carried by moving electrons or electric fields.

Chemical Energy — energy stored in the bonds of molecules that is released or absorbed during chemical reactions.

Kinetic Energy — energy an object has because of its motion (depends on mass and velocity; KE = ½mv²).

Light Energy — energy carried by electromagnetic radiation (visible light is energy transported by photons).

Thermal Energy — internal energy of a substance due to the random motion of its particles; related to temperature and heat.

Mechanical Energy — energy associated with the motion and position of an object; the sum of its kinetic and potential energy.
