Description
Energy can be either kinetic energy or potential energy. Energy has many different forms. It can change from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed. When energy changes form, the results often include thermal energy as well as other forms of energy. Heat transfer can occur by conduction, convection, or radiation.
