energy types are transformed from one type to another eg when a falling rock hits the ground, kinetic energy is transformed into sound energy.
The blue lines show some common energy transformations
The energy of something moving eg a car rolling down a hill has kinetic energy
Stored energy eg a boy sitting at the top of a slippery dip has energy stored as a result of his position
chemical energy is stored until it is converted eg in food it is converted to heat when it is eaten; in a match head it is converted to light and heat when it is moved against the box; to electrical energy when a battery is connected to a circuit
also springs
when you pick up a pen and hold it up, you give it gravitational potential energy
can be produced by chemicals reacting, respiration in cells, movement of two objects against each other ie friction
