We rely on machines in everyday life, and those machines rely on energy. Learn about the different sources of energy that power machines: heat, fuels, electricity, and nuclear energy. We'll also cover external and internal combustion engines, steam engines, thermal power stations, Nicholas Otto and the four-stroke piston engine, and inventors Rudolph Diesel and Thomas Newcomen.
