Radiant Energy

electromagnetic energy

Electrical energy

is made up of negatively and positively charged electrons that commonly move through a wire.

Thermal energy

is made when the motion of atoms and molecules move quicker an collide with each other.

Sound energy

is the movement of energy through some substance, such as air or water, and is caused by vibrations.
