Yes. This is part of Einstein's theory: E = mc 2 "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." The amount of energy contained in 1 gram of matter is equal to the number you get when you square the speed of light. This concept lead to the idea that an atomic bomb is possible.

can be converted to potential energy.
Are various energy forms interconvertible?
Yes, various forms of energy are interconvertible. Look at the following examples. Sound energy is converted into electrical energy in a microphone. Electrical energy is converted into sound energy in a loud speaker. Electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy in a motor. Mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy in a generator. Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy when a stone is dropped. Electrical energy is converted into heat energy in a room heater. Chemical energy is converted into sound, light and heat energy while firing crackers
Can one form of energy be converted to another?
Yes, it can be converted into another kind of Energy. Example: The chemical energy of petroleum is converted to mechanical energy in a car engine with some loss as heat and sound energy. The mechanical energy is converted to kinetic energy.
