All forms of energy differ based on their source, how they are utilized, and their impact on the environment. Some common forms of energy include mechanical energy (movement of objects), thermal energy (heat), chemical energy (stored in bonds of atoms and molecules), and nuclear energy (from the nucleus of an atom). Each form of energy has specific characteristics and behaviors.

Three different forms of energy are kinetic energy, potential energy, and thermal energy.
Yes, all forms of energy have the potential to do work.
transformed from one form to another. This is known as the law of conservation of energy. Energy is constantly changing from one type to another in different processes, but the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant.
All forms of energy can be converted into other forms of energy through various processes such as transformation, transfer, and conversion. This includes mechanical energy, thermal energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, and nuclear energy, which can all be interconverted depending on the system and the interactions involved.
All forms of energy involve the ability to do work. They differ in how they are stored or transformed. For example, kinetic energy is the energy of motion, potential energy is stored energy, and thermal energy is related to temperature.
