What things use gravitational potential energy?
The medieval war machine the trebuchet uses gravitational potential energy to hurl rocks. Hydroelectric dams use the gravitational potential of water to convert to kinetic energy to drive a turbine and create electricity.
What type of energy do things contain?
"Things" can contain just about any type of energy, depending on the situation: kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, electric potential energy, magnetic potential energy, elastic energy, nuclear energy, heat energy, etc.
What type of energy does sitting use?
potential
Thermal energy is energy stored by things that stretch or compress?
Thermal energy is not the energy stored by things that stretch or compress. This type of energy applies to strain potential energy. Thermal energy refers to motion energy due to the random vibration of atoms or molecules within an object.
What type of energy is stored when things are bent or stretched?
elastic potential energy

What is an objects total and potential energy?
An objects total kinetic and potential energy is when both things are moving (kinetic) and the energy is stored in the object (potential)
What is the name for energy that is not in use?
Potential Energy
What are Kinetic and Potential energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy that make things move. They are known as the "Movement Energy". Potential energy is the energy stored in object, waiting to be used.
What the needed to give living things energy?
chemical potential energy
What things store potential energy?
Several things, depending on the type of potential energy. Gravitational potential energy: Any object that is above the chosen reference level (often the ground level) has positive potential energy. Anything below the chosen reference level has negative potential energy. Elastic potential energy: For example, a compressed spring. Chemical energy: For example, hydrogen and oxygen separately have a higher energy level than when they combine into water.
What is the energy that is stored and available to use?
Potential Energy
What kind of energy might be saved up for future use?
potential energy
Thermal energy is energy stored by things that stretch or compress?
