Potential Energy

The stored energy that the body has when it is not in motion is defined as potential energy. 

The types of potential energy can be classified into gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy.

e.g: A ball resting in its position.

The four kinds of kinetic energy include:

• Electrical Energy:  The energy produced by electricity is known as electrical energy.
• Radiant Energy: The energy produced by the light waves is called radiant energy.
• Sound Energy: The energy produced by the sound waves is known as sound energy.
• Thermal Energy: The energy produced by the heat is called thermal energy.
