it depends on conversion.
wind to wind energy.
Sun to solar Energy.
and water to hydro have no loss only gained
but on other hand
electric to heat energy like also some heat will be lost.
in nuclear energy some energy also lost during conversion.

Describe how energy can be converted from one form to another on a wind up toy?
Energy can be converted from one form to another in a windup toy because when the spring unwinds, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
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.
When energy is converted from one form to another form in the body which energy is lost?
mostly heat energy
When one form of energy is converted to another some of the original energy is always converted into which type of energy?
Heat (thermal)
What is another name for waste energy?
Energy converted into an undesirable form is wasted energy.

When energy is converted from one form to another what is the lost energy called?
heat
Can energy be converted from one form into another?
Yes, any form of energy can be converted into any other form, although the conversion process is not 100% efficient and there will be some energy lost.
When water at 0.c freezes is heat lost or gained?
As heat is a form of energy, it isn't lost or gained, it's just converted into another form of energy.
How can electric energy can be converted to another form of energy in your home?
yes... for example electrical energy is converted to heat and light energy in a light bulb
Is usable energy lost each time energy is converted to another form of energy?
Yes.
What electrical energy is converted to another form of energy?
The electrical energy supplied to an electric motor
How is energy converted into different forms?
It is not converted, it's naturally changed from one form to another.
