Energy forms

In the context of physical sciences, several forms of energy have been defined. These include:Thermal energy popularly known as heatChemical energyElectrical energyRadiant energy commonly known as light energyNuclear energyMagnetic energyElastic energySound EnergySome basic textbooks group all these forms of energy into two broad categories: kinetic energy and potential energy. However, some forms of energy resist such easy classification, as is the case with light energy. Other familiar types of energy (such as heat in most circumstances) are a varying mix of both potential and kinetic energy.
