Mechanical or thermal energy . Also into light.
Each energy source is converted into electricity by turning a turbine, fission, or fusion. The turbine turns magnets pulling electrons off atoms and sending them to our houses. Fission and fusion where they smash atoms together combining them allowing the unneeded electrons to be collected (fusion) or splitting an atom (fission) that allows the former atom's electrons to be collected and brought to our homes.
Generation of electricity can be done in several ways. The most usual is with generators that rely on movement of conductors in magnetic fields, so the requirement here is for mechanical force to turn the generator. This can be provided by turbines driven by steam produced by coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, biomass fuels, incinerators, or it could be from wind turbines or hydro energy, or even geothermal energy, wave energy or tidal energy. Diesel generators and small gasoline generators are another way to produce electricity from oil fuel
Electricity can also be produced by solar panels directly from light energy.
Yes.

Not entirely. The Second Law of Thermodynamics causes some limitations. Mainly, once energy is in the form of heat energy, only part of it can be converted to other forms of energy.

1. Electric flat iron -electrical energy===> mechanical energy===>heat energy
In an electric fan electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy and in loudspeaker the electrical energy is converted into sound energy.
Energy transformed by the means of energy transformation.
Battery electric energy is converted to light energy of flashlight.
Chemical energy can be transformed into other forms of energy. This form of energy can be converted into motion energy, electric energy and heat energy among others.
Usually electrical energy is transformed into mechanical or kinetic energy
As energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can be transformed from one form to another. Hence ,in various applications energy is only transformed. For eg. : Electric motor
The potential energy of the falling down water transfers to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy turns turbines that are connected to electric generators where the kinetic energy transfers into electric energy.
In an electric motor, electrical energy (because it uses electricity) is transformed into mechanical energy (because it performs action). An electric mixer is a good example of this.
It appears as heat
Energy can be transformed into different ways of energy.
