Energy transformation or energy conversion is the


process of changing one form of energy to one other. In physics,
the term energy describes the capacity to produce certain
changes within any system, without regard to limitations in
transformation imposed. Changes in total energy of systems can
only be accomplished by adding or removing energy from them,
as energy is a quantity which is conserved (unchanging), as stated
by the first law of thermodynamics. Mass-energy equivalence,
which rose up from special relativity, states that changes in the
energy of systems will also coincide with changes (often small in
practice) in the system's mass, and the mass of a system is a
measure of its energy content. The process of something
happening (forming).

Energy in many of its forms may be used in natural


processes, or to provide some service to society such as heating,
refrigeration, light, or performing mechanical work to operate
machines. For example, an internal combustion engine converts
the potential chemical energy in gasoline and oxygen into
thermal energy which, by causing pressure and performing work
on the pistons, is transformed into the mechanical energy that
accelerates the vehicle (increasing its kinetic energy). A solar cell
converts the radiant energy of sunlight into electrical energy that
can then be used to light a bulb or power a computer.

SUMMARY
The first law of thermodynamics is a version of the law
of conservation of energy, adapted for thermodynamic systems.
The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of
an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from
one form to another, but cannot be created or destroyed. Energy
in many of its forms may be used in natural processes, or to
provide some service to society such as heating, refrigeration,
light, or performing mechanical work to operate machines.
