Energy

**Kinetic energy** is energy of motion. A rubber band flying through the air has kinetic energy. When you are walking or running your body is exhibiting kinetic energy.**Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy**. Before the yo-yo begins its fall it has stored energy due to its position. At the top it has its maximum potential energy. As it starts to fall the potential energy begins to be changed into kinetic energy. At the bottom its potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy so that it now has its maximum kinetic energy. A waterfall has both potential and kinetic energy. The water at the top of Bridal Veil Falls has stored potential energy. When the water begins to fall, its potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. This change in energy also happens at Niagara Falls where it is used to provide electricity from the transformation of mechanical and electromagnetic energy to parts of the northeastern United States.

Renuable and non renuable energy Sources

my expert group has been resercing on renuable and nonrenuable energy sources

renuable energy is energy that can be used over and over

nonrenuable energy is energy that cant be used over and over

Potential Energy

potential energy is energy that has the potential to do things

kinetic energy means it is doing soming at this moment

solar energy is energy that is from the sun to a solar panel which will either heat somthing or power a house



hydro energy is energy from water pushing huge generators around in circules creating energy

electric energy is energy that will power appliances in your home/house/hotel/motel/anywhere

nuclear energy is powered by atoms witch let huge amounts of radiaton
