How many types of Energy are there?
598564
There are fundamentally many ways to answer this question; and I will address three.\n\nIn nuclear chemistry, there are four fundamental interactions of matter that can be termed energy:\n\n1. Strong interaction, or strong force. This is the force which holds together quarks and other subnuclear particles into discreet protons, neutrons, and electrons. This is the energy that is released in a nuclear reaction.\n\n2. Weak interaction, or weak force. This is the force which holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus of an atom. This is the energy that is released in radioactive decay.\n\n3. Electromagnetism. This is the attractive or repulsive force caused by the positive or negative charge of atomic particles and the electromagnetic field of photons. This force is the most wide in function, and is present in practically every conventional phenomenon. The electromagnetic force is responsible for electron orbitals, for chemical bonds and reactions, for electromagnetic radiation, and fundamentally for traditional force.\n\n4. Gravity. This is the tendency of objects with mass to accelerate toward each other. This is the weakest force, but can act over an almost unlimited distance.\n\nOR ....\n\nIn classic chemistry, a molecule can have three kinds of energy:\n\n1. Transitional energy, or the energy relative to motion.\n\n2. Chemical energy, or the energy inherent to electrochemical bonds.\n\n3. Vibrational energy, or energy relative to the vibration or oscillation of individual molecules.\n\nOR ...\n\nIn physics, we categorize all energy in the universe into two sets:\n\n1. Potential energy. This is the energy inherent in position or interaction with another body.\n\n2. Kinetic energy. This is the energy a mass possesses relative to its motion, whether it be classic velocity or vibration. This is sometimes termed work, though this is technically incorrect; both kinetic and potential energy are work, in different forms.\n\nAnd there you have it.

As long as we understand, energy can take different forms but it can not be destroyed.  It can be converted to mass, and vice-versa.  There are other forms of energy such as light energy, chemical energy.  It seems that energy is exhibiting higher dimensions of space and what we see within our 3D world is translated to our braind as energy.

electrical energy-------> heat + light\ndoes that help?

Like so many different energies in the world, there also exist a 'living energy'. This energy circulates in us till we die. Research is still far behind, there must be many more energies that we presently don't  know. ..good energy ....bad energy..which might be associating with living energy , making us to good or bad deeds.

Of course energy is transferred  in energy transformation . How heat can be transferred in mechanical energy transformation or chemical energy transformation . There are  different type of energy like mechanical energy , heat energy, chemical energy and nuclear energy .  The Energy transform in  form of  qunta. Minimum energy transferred will be   h f ( frequency) . h is Planck's constant .

The first answer is correct.  Energy.  Energy is defined as force applied through a distance.  This specific type of energy is known as kinetic energy (energy of motion).  Energy is measured in joules, or J.  E = F x D, so if you applied 50 Newtons and the object moved 1 metre, you would have expended 50 joules.

This is an excellent question and is quite tedious for a large number of particles, but there have been some papers written on this question. See http://www.geom.uiuc.edu/docs/forum/hoops_links/energy.html for an interesting aside, http://tracer.lcc.uma.es/problems/thomson/thomson.html for some illustration and http://lanl.arxiv.org/find/grp_q-bio,grp_cs,grp_physics,grp_math,grp_nlin/1/all:+AND+problem+Thomson/0/1/0/all/0/1 for the actual mathematics.

Energy comes in many forms, right? Electrical, kinetic, potential, heat, chemical etc. And energy can be converted between these forms right? i.e. when you drop something from a height, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Same thing when you release a compressed spring. \n\nThe quality of energy refers to the ease with which you can harness it for use and conversion to other forms. For example the energy stored in a battery is high quality energy, since it's easy to harness for use. The ambient heat energy in a room, on the otherhand, is low quality energy, since it not easy or practical to extract the energy for use.

Anything the energy can be converted to use for.\n\nUsually it is light and heat though.

Positive energy is the only kind we know. So the question you're asking is "Is energy easily made kinetic?" To which the answer is to hand you an electric motor.

There are other forms of energy, yes. However as far as nuclear energy, no. Fission is the discarding of atoms (unpredictable left uncontrolled, hence the rods at a plant). Fusion is the opposite. they are considered A and B.Check this address and all will be answered:                  http://theory.gsi.de/jap-ger-workshop/talks/dmocelj.pdf#search='nuclear%20physics%2C%20calculations'

Well yes and no. According the the principal of conservation of energy there is a set amount of energy and it can only be converted, not created or destroyed. But as we look into more complicated realms of physics, we understand that matter can be converted  into energy, and vice-versa.

Thermal energy IS heat.

Well, if you get something with the second to lowest potential energy in the world, that energy can go to the lowest potential energy thing in the world and that's it.  Otherthan that, no.  And there's nothing inherent in the material, unless you're talking about chemical reactions, in which case, I just don't know what those two things are.  I hope that's clear.
