===Meaning===
'''Energy stores''' are the different ways in which [[energy]] can reside in a [[system]].
 
===About Energy Stores===
: '''Energy Stores''' are associated with the movement or of objects and position of objects in a [[Field (Physics)|field]].
: There are a number of '''energy stores''' that can be used to describe a [[system]]:
*[[Thermal Energy Store]] - Particles [[vibrating ]] or moving around randomly in the material '''store energy'''.*[[Elastic Potential Energy Store]] - A stretched, squashed or twisted [[object]] '''stores energy'''.*[[Chemical Potential Energy Store]] - Chemicals '''store energy''' that can be released in [[Chemical Reaction|chemical reactions]].*[[Kinetic Energy Store]] - An moving objects '''stores energy'''.*[[Magnetic Potential Energy Store]] - A [[magnetic ]] [[object ]] in a [[Magnetic Field|magnetic field ]] '''stores energy'''.*[[Electrostatic Potential Energy Store]] - A charged [[charge]]d [[object ]] in an electric [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field ]] '''stores energy'''.*[[Nuclear Potential Energy Store]] - The [[Atomic Nucleus|nucleus ]] of an [[atom ]] '''stores energy ''' that can be released in [[Nuclear ReactionsReaction]]s.*[[Gravitational Potential Energy Store]] - An [[object ]] in a [[Gravitational Field|gravitational field ]] '''stores energy'''. *[[Vibrational Energy Store]] - A combination of '''energy stores ''' that can be used to describe a [[vibrating ]] [[object]]. For example a spring going up and down [[Energy Transfer|transfers energy ]] between the [[Kinetic Energy Store|kinetic energy store]], [[Elastic Potential Energy Store|elastic potential energy store ]] and the [[Gravitational Potential Energy Store|gravitational potential energy store ]] but this can be described more simply as the spring having a [[Vibrational Energy storeStore]]. *[[Internal Energy Store]] - A combination of the [[Thermal Energy Store|thermal energy store ]] and all [[Potential Energy|potential energy stores ]] of the particles [[particle]]s in an [[object]].
