Yes, there are many examples. Electrical energy to light energy (light bulb). Mechanical energy to heat energy (rub your hands together). Chemical energy to light energy (a glowstick), and on and on.

Yes, it can.

An example would be putting the on brakes of a moving car.

The car when moving, has Kinetic Energy, but putting on the brakes will make it lose that Kinetic energy because it is transformed in Thermal Energy when the brake drums and pads heat up.

Further, the tires and road will heat also as they start to 'micro skid' against each other during stopping.

it can be transformed from one form to another. This means that it can be transformed from one form that is easy to use, such as electricity, to a less useful form such as ambient heat.

yes. Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy. when a mango on a tree drop's it is being in a motion's the energy converted is kinetic energy.
