SOURCES OF ENERGY Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Energy can only be converted from one form to another. E.g. if we drop a plate from a height‚ the potential energy of the plate gets converted mostly to sound energy when it hits the ground‚ chemical energy in the wax is converted to heat energy & light energy on burning. The total energy during a physical or chemical process remains the same. In the above examples‚ energy in the usable form is dissipated to the surroundings in less
