Question about 5 payments when damaging someone.

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows of where in the gemara they discuss what kind of payment these are, either from money (meaning repaying what you damaged/did) versus a fine (payment more than what you damaged/did).

As a laymen, I would assume nezek ripoi and sheves to be from money, as you are repaying what you caused the other person to lose, and tsar and boishes to be a knas, as they other person isn’t losing monetary value, so you aren’t paying what you caused him to lose.

Any resources, links, or information would be greatly appreciated!
