total energy
Sum of energies
Total energy is the complete amount of energy in a system, accounting for all forms—kinetic, potential, thermal, chemical, and so on.
In physics, the principle of conservation states that total energy remains constant in an isolated system, though it may transform from one type to another: The total energy before and after the collision was the same.
