Energy is the capability to do work. For example, if you wake up in the morning, are tired and cannot move, you do not have energy. After you have coffee, you now can move around, so you have energy. However, energy is not limited to living things. Every time something moves, energy has to do with it. There are two mains types of energy. Kinetic energy, the energy if motion, and potential energy, energy that is being stored.
Great examples of the use of energy! Remember, even when things aren’t in motion, they still have potential energy.
