You are'nt destroying energy when u wasted it. It is converted into another form of energy. ie.( when you are driving a car, the car's kinetic energy is wasted because it is reduced by the friction encountered, however the reduced kinetic energy is converted into heat energy) Hence, Energy can neither be destroyed nor created.

If energy cant be created or destroyed how come people say not to waste energy?

People say it in the sense of that we use it flawlessly and carelessly. We are not doing any good activities at all.

What are laws conservation of energy?

Energy cant be created or destroyed . The total energy in the universe is constant.The energy can be changed into one energy to another .


What happens to the energy you waste?

The energy in this universe can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can be transferred from one form to another so all the energy that you waste wil be converted to some other form.


Is it possible to remove solar energy?

You cant remove the energy because energy cannot be created nor destroyed. But you can be in a place that doesn't receive it.


Can kinetic energy be used up?

No energy cant be created or destroyed. It can only be converted into something else. Its the basic law of physics.


Can electrical energy be depleted?

No, electric energy cannot be depleted, electricity produced when used is given off as waste energy, the lost energy is then increasingly spread out into the surrondings, it cannot be reused or destroyed.


Conversation of energy?

The correct term is "conservation of energy". It either refers to making efforts not to waste energy, or to the physical law which states that under everyday circumstances, energy can't be created or destroyed.


Energy can be lost from this?

Under normal circumstances, energy can't be created or destroyed. But in any activity (and energy is required for any activity), part of the useful energy is converted into unusable energy - for example, waste heat.
