Classify:Energyis the ability to exert force and cause change. Energy has manyforms:

• Kinetic energyis energy of motion. All moving things have kinetic energy.
o Soundis energy of vibrating materials or air molecules.
o Thermal energyis the energy of tiny moving particles. As an object heatsup, particles move faster and thermal energy increases.
• Gravitational potential energyis stored energy that exists based on theposition of an object. The higher an object is, the greater its gravitational potentialenergy.
• Electrical currentis energy that comes from moving charged particles.
• Lightis electromagnetic waves that are visible to the eye.
• Chemical energyis energy that is stored in the bonds holding atoms together.
• Nuclear energyis energy released when atoms split apart or join together.

Answer:

Energy: Kinetic, Sound, Thermal, gravitational, electric, light and nuclear

Step-by-step explanation:

This exercise asks to clarify a little some important concepts

* Energy. It is the capable one that has the bodies to carry out a job.

* Kinetic energy. It is the energy due to the movement of objects

* sound energy. It is the energy due to the vibration of the atoms or molecules of the materials, it can be solid, liquid or gaseous

* Thermal energy. It is the energy due to movement of the particles

* Gravitational Energy. It is a configuration energy due to the height of the bodies with respect to a reference point

* Electric power. It is due to the movement of electric charges

* light energy. It is the energy that light carries due to the electric and magnetic fields that form it, it occurs throughout the electromagnetic spectrum

* Nuclear energy. It is the energy stored in the nucleus by the configuration and movement of protons and neutrons.
