The document discusses five main types of energy:
1) Mechanical energy is energy due to an object's motion or position. Examples include a bowling ball and spinning plate in a microwave.
2) Electromagnetic energy includes light from different wavelengths such as visible light, microwaves, and radio waves. It is the energy that cooks food in a microwave.
3) Electrical energy is caused by the movement of electrons and is easily transported through power lines to convert to other forms like mechanical energy from a fan.
4) Chemical energy is stored in chemical bonds and released in chemical reactions like burning matches.
5) Thermal energy is the heat and motion of atoms in hot or cool objects.
