Types of Energy
It is the potential energy stored by an object because of its higher position compared to a lower position.
Gravitational Energy
to become different
Change
when potential energy is released, triggered into motion by gravity or chemical reactions, among other catalysts.

thermal energy
Without advanced electromagnetic technology, cell phones and computers, Bluetooth, GPS systems, satellite imagery, and scientific understanding of our planet and space as we know it would not be viable.
Electromagnetic Energy
the ability to cause change
energy
the energy stored in an object due to its height above the Earth
