Water draining from a tower is an example of what kind of energy conversion?
Gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy
What form of energy conversion will take place when a bulb is lighted up?
Electrical energy is being converted to light energy and heat energy
Hands moving on a battery operated clock is an example of what energy conversion?
Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
Hands moving on a battery operated clock is an example of what kind of energy conversion?
Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
What kind of conversion take place in an electric iron?
I assume you are referring to energy conversions. Well, the whole PURPOSE of an electric iron is to produce heat, and being electric means that it uses electrical energy, so the conversion is, simply, from electrical energy to heat.
How a lamp shows energy being changed from on form to another?
it is electrical energy being converted to light energy or electron to photon conversion.

Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
Is a dark light bulb starting to glow a conversion from energy to mechanical energy?
No because mechanical energy means that something is being physically moved.
Is food being digested and used to regulate body temperature A conversion of chemical energy to thermal energy?
yes because the rainbow dancing unicorn burns the inside of a humans body when food is digested so there is a conversion from the chemical to thermal energy.

How much of the energy input of a bicycle is lost to heat?
Bicycles are generally rated as being very efficient, in the 95-98% range.
What is a good basic definition for excess entropy?
In physics and chemistry, entropy is defined as the 'unavailability' of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, or the conversion of energy into this unavailable state. Excess entropy means that there's much more energy being wasted in this manner.
When plants perform photosynthesis they usually use sunlight to produce foodthis is an example of light energy being converted to?
Photosynthesis is an example of the conversion of light energy to chemical energy.
