Define Energy

[Rena]

Energy is strength.If you have no energy,you're weak.

[whiteninja]

Energy cannot be strength; strength means that you can use alot of energy at once, or that you can withstand alot of energy being used on you. :S

And whiteninja, that's a brilliant quote you found.

Thank you.

Energy is that which animates any given object or individual element which exists (providing it is not dark matter) within the universe. (Since we dont know if there is an outside the universe, or what the effects of being outside it are we cannot claim anything to that effect).

Energy is work or the ability to do work. >_>

That is academic and not what I'm looking for I think. :> Plus, it doesn't really make sense, think about it. ^^

That's really the best definition in this thread. 'Grats.

But it still leaves questions unanswered, because whereas we can say cheese is yellow, solid, and sometimes riddled with holes, we cannot describe energy.

But still, nice one. ^^

we cannot describe energy.

Sure we can. Energy is... Awesome.

Updated after a few thoughts.....

A nice definition but, in a true physics sense then energy really can only be described as " an abstract quantity important in the analysis of all physical closed systems" Ahh takes me back to my physics 'o' and 'a' level days.

Energy cannot be given a number or quantified therefore it is abstract by its very nature.

Forces animate objects by the way the forces interact with each other. The mass of said object n also determines its animation.
