Energy

The three laws of thermodynamics state that:

1. Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed
2. Law of Entropy: Randomness (disorder) always increases
3.Absolute Zero: All things stop moving

               Energy is all around us. Every task that we complete in our day to day life uses up energy. It is important to note that thought energy cannot be destroyed (first law) it can be transformed. There many different types and forms of energy we encounter. Some of these are:

Potential Energy
Chemical Energy
Mechanical Energy
Kinetic Energy
Electric Energy
Sound Energy
Light Energy
Mechanical Energy
Thermal Energy
Nuclear Energy
Radial Energy
Elastic energy
