potential energy: the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others

work: forced multiples distance

mechanical energy: energy of an object due to its motion or position; the sum of an objects kenetic energy and potential energy

sound energy: movement of energy through a substance

thermal energy: refers to energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature

electric energy: energy (both kinetic and potential) in the changed particles of an atom that can be used to apply force and/or do work

radiant energy: energy that travels by waves or particles

nuclear energy: energy in the nucleus, or core, of an atom
