Elastic potential- The energy stored when an object is stretched or squashed. Drawn catapults, compressed springs, inflated balloons.
Gravitational potential- The energy of an object at height. Aeroplanes, kites, mugs on a table.
Kinetic-The energy of a moving object. Runners, buses, comets.
Chemical- The energy stored in chemical bonds, such as those between molecules.Foods, muscles, electrical cells.
Magnetic-The energy stored when repelling poles have been pushed closer together or when attracting poles have been pulled further apart.Fridge magnets, compasses, maglev trains which use magnetic levitation.
