Potential Energy
... Energy that is being used is creating action of some kind. All things that move contain the energy of motion, and we call this kinetic energy. When you tap into the stored stuff you have (food from the pantry or paper from your binder), then you are using that resource at the moment. The same goes w ...

... Energy derives from the Greek words en (meaning in) and ergon (meaning work). Energy is the capacity to do work. But what does work mean? In mechanics, work is the change in energy resulting from the application of a force to an object as the object moves through a distance in space. W = Fd or more ...
