Respectfully, I disagree. The new video takes an early digression into work and we get into the weeds of forcexdisplacement whereas this one focuses on the fundamentals of learning about what energy is by examining where we find it, and how forms of energy that 'look different' actually boil down to either kinetic or potential. My students found this one more useful.

Adding location and movement brings to mind the phenomena of the ‘eternal ‘now’ principle. That the amount of energy is relative to the location and direction of matter. However, I would omit ‘gravitational energy’ as a thing when really that just refers to Earth’s solidified magnetism holding all matter in place.

The answer to what is energy is really pretty simple. Energy is the capability of something to undergo a change. It’s not a fluid, it’s not a substance. It’s just a number and a very useful number. But like mass, momentum, and velocity, it’s a number that can only have value in relation to something else.

Some kind of "status". Other cool phenomena is electromagnetic force. There's no perfect explanation how a particle can exert force in another distant one. The Electromagnetic theory gives us information useful enough to make use of electricity and magnetism but doesn't really tell us what things are. I'm thinking that maybe the universe and matter is a emergent property of some underlying thing! What do you think guys?

I think both the unknown and our inability to describe many things, like energy in terms of "what it actually is" makes physics so compelling to me. The "whys" are pretty cool also, why energy acts like it does, why after the big bang all of that energy did not just continue to radiate forever as photons, why did it take the form of matter in the first place. If it makes your head hurt thinking about it too long then you are probably on the right path :)

( kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ_NYqp4qdNpf5o ) The displacement of an object is necessary to do work _on that object._ If you push a wall and that wall doesn't move, then no work has been done _on that wall._ That doesn't mean work hasn't been done on anything. It just means it hasn't been done on the wall. It's certainly been done _inside you body,_ but that's because things have been displaced inside you body.

The fact that you actually talk about the one thing that no one has ever actually talked about before is amazing. This same question has been boggling my mind for quite some time and I came to a some-what conclusion that energy is just like our math. It is simply a "variable" we use that helps us understand reality the same way that the variables 1 and 2 help us understand that an apple added to a group of 2 other apples make 3 apples. I kind of believe that energy is really just like the numbers we created since the beginning of mankind but I don't believe that other people see it this way and figure that energy must be a substance. The same way that numbers can work universally, energy is the same thing. I think of energy as just another number "1,2,energy,3...." even though that is not an accurate representation. Now this is not my definite thought or explanation of what energy is or its value because there is much more to it then that. Anyways, that how I think of energy and what I believe it to be in a way.

a Joule measures energy with the units: kg*m^2/s^2, but what does that mean? Consider acceleration with units m/s^2: how fast the velocity (m/s) is changing. A newton describes acceleration of a mass with kg*m/s^2: how fast the velocity of a mass is changing in one dimension of space. By adding the additional meter unit to the newton, we get the Joule: how fast the velocity of a mass is changing in two dimensions of space. It seems to me that when matter is moving in two dimensions at once, it is being torn apart, so maybe energy is a measurement of 'how much a mass is exploding'.

Stuff we already know. You are actually close to getting what is energy, abruptly stopped on vibration of elementary particles. What happens if we are able to stop or slow these vibrations? In the question, I mentioned "slow". It means, energy is a matter of time too. If time of an object is slowed down relative on an observer, the perceived energy output of an object is lessened too. If we are able to stop the vibration of these particles then it is also the equivalent of stopping their time. What is a particle without time? Nothing. It has no energy. It doesn't exist. Energy is simply existence and the perceived reality of time.

Also, the stuffs of our universe are able to capture those disturbance and keep them for different amounts of time then release it when the conditions are right.

The information you gave was very interesting. It was good for my mind to eventually put all energy into the two categories. And also describing, albeit in short, how energy is not an actual thing, as far as tests have revealed so far. I'd like to know more about energy and light. The reason for me to search the web for 'what is energy', came from trying to understand what light is. Since it has no mass, but does have energy, what is it then? It moves through space from the sun to earth, from stars to alien planets, yet it is not something with mass, (potential energy), but does have properties like wave length. Your channel is most likely aimed at a young audience (me being young, but not so much: 35), hence maybe your choice for a sharp speaking tone, quick editing and kind of humor.

A very good explation of something that cannot be explained. If energy is a property, it cannot be "just a number". A number is a number for something.

We have to consider some thing fundamental sooner or later and energy is about as fundamental as it gets. Energy is everything that is.

What is the difference between force and energy? Can you make a video on it? I like all your videos. Keep up the good work.

I want to make a "what is a force?" video, but it's still in the brainstorming stage.

This is incredible. Aristotle essentially says precisely what you’re describing in his treatment of potency/act - or more close to his Greek, ability/energy - which is the basis for his claim that reality is merely things energized and things capable of energizing. That corresponds to kinetic and potential energy, respectively.

Energy is the difference between things? The trace of non-homogeneity left over after the shattered symmetry of the big bang? Energy is entropy that's been bottled? Love your channel.
