What type of energy can not be converted to another type?
Heat. In fact you can convert part of the heat into other types of energy, only if there is a heat difference between two objects - but you can never convert all heat into other types of energy.
Why doesn't the body use the heat available to it as a source of energy?
You can't just convert any type of energy into any other type of energy. Heat energy is "low-quality" energy; machines built by humans can only convert part of it to other forms of energy, and only if there is a heat DIFFERENCE between two places. Any energy converted to heat is lost, in a way. The energy is still there, but it can't be used.
What two forms of energy does a lightbulb produce?
Main type is light energy. Also some heat is produced
What two types of energy is fire?
heat and light energy
What are the names of two kinds of stored energy?
Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy
What is two other names for heat energy?
electromagnetic energy is the other name for light energy. Radiant energy is also widely used, though electromagnetic is the most scientific term.
What two names are given to the sun 's energy?
nuclear fusion

Energy exists in two states what are they?
Energy exists in many more than two states, but two are light energy and heat energy.

What is the major way in which heat energy is spread through the atmosphere?
One way that heat energy is spread through the atmosphere is through radiation. Conduction and convection are two other ways that heat energy is spread through the atmosphere.
Can haet energy be turned into electric energy?
No, at least, not all of it. If there is a difference in temperature between two objects, part of the heat can be converted into other forms of energy.
