types of the energy that the video  the energy is everything that we do and are different types of energy  KINECTIC ENERGY The energy associated with an object’s motion is called  kinetic energy . A speeding bullet, a walking person, and electromagnetic radiation like light all have kinetic energy.  POTENTIAL ENERGY Let’s return to our wrecking ball example. The motionless wrecking ball doesn’t have any kinetic energy. But what would happen if it were lifted two stories up with a crane and suspended above a car? In this case, the wrecking ball isn't moving, but there is, in fact, still energy associated with it.  CHEMICAL ENERGY s energy stored in the  .  It is released in a chemical reaction, often producing heat as a by-product  Batteries, biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and coal are examples of stored chemical energy. Usually, once chemical energy is released from a substance, that substance is transformed into an entirely new substance. ELECTRICAL ENE
