What does the law of conservation of energy say about energy?

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can only be converted from one form to another. This means that the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant over time.


Law that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed?

The law that states energy cannot be created or destroyed is the First Law of Thermodynamics. It is also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, which states that energy can only change forms or be transferred from one system to another.


Light energy is proof of which Conservation Law?

I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum. A photon has both energy and momentum.I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum.

Which of the conservation law does not apply to an inelastic collision?

Both conservation laws are applied. The conservation of momentum and conservation of energy. However, in an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved. But total energy IS CONSERVED and the principle of conservation of energy does hold.


How are the laws of conservation of mass and conservation of energy similar and how are they different?

The laws of conservation of mass and conservation of energy are similar in that both state that the total amount of mass or energy in a closed system remains constant over time. However, the conservation of mass applies specifically to mass, while the conservation of energy applies to energy in its various forms (kinetic, potential, etc.).

What is the law of conservation in your own words?

There are many different laws of conservation, but they are essentially the same. For this example I will use energy. The laws of conservation of energy say that energy in = energy out. This is to say that energy cannot be destroyed or created.

What is the conservation energy?

Perhaps you mean "energy conservation", or equivalently, "conservation of energy". That refers to the fact that there is a quantity called energy, which can't be increased or decreased (in a closed system).
