NGSS.MS-PS3-5

A type of potential energy stored in the nucleus.

• Nuclear Energy

• Thermal Energy

• Electromagnetic Radiation

• Chemical Energy

NGSS.MS-PS3-2

NGSS.MS-PS3-4

NGSS.MS-PS3-5

A form of potential energy because it relsult from the relative positions of the particle within a materials. The particles ar held in those positions by chemical bonds. When these bonds are broken, energy is released.

• Electrical Energy

• Chemical Energy

• Thermal Energy

• Electromagnetic Radiation

NGSS.HS-PS1-4

The energy of electric charges.

• Mechanical Energy

• Chemical Energy

• Electrical Energy

• Electromagnetic Radiation

A form of kinetic energy that travels through spce in waves. Examples include X-rays, radio waves, and UV waves.

• Electrical Energy

• Electromagnetic Radiation

• Thermal Energy
