type of energy stores

magnetic

The energy stored when repelling poles have been pushed closer together or when attracting poles have been pulled further apart.

thermal/internal

The total kinetic and potential energy of the particles in an object, in most cases this is the vibrations - also known as the kinetic energy - of particles. In hotter objects, the particles have more internal energy and vibrate faster.

chemical

The energy stored in chemical bonds, such as those between molecules.

kinetic

the energy of a moving object

electrostatic

The energy stored when repelling charges have been moved closer together or when attracting charges have been pulled further apart.

elastic potential

The energy stored when an object is stretched or squashed.

gravitational potential

The energy of an object at height.

nuclear

The energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.
