In a pendulum, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as it swings back and forth. Friction and air resistance gradually dissipate the kinetic energy, causing the pendulum to eventually stop swinging.

Energy conversions take place inside your body's cells, specifically in the mitochondria, where food molecules are broken down to release energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This energy is then used to power various cellular processes and activities.
The main energy conversion is from chemical energy stored in the battery to electrical energy. The electrical energy powers the light bulb to produce light and heat energy.
A swinging pendulum follows a simple physical path that is described as simple harmonic motion. A frictionless pendulum would swing forever. Friction generates heat which radiates away energy from the system. Therefore friction will cause the pendulum to slow and stop as all the energy gets removed from the S.H.M. If you rig up a way to replace the lost energy, then the pendulum will continue to swing. This is the method used in a pendulum clock. The energy put into the wind up spring will replace the energy lost due to friction until the spring winds down. The key point is "energy is conserved" which means you cannot create or destroy it. You can only move it from one place to another or convert it into something else.
The energy conversions that take place in this scenario are: 1) Thermal energy from boiling water is converted to kinetic energy when the steam is blown against the turbine blades, causing them to spin; 2) The kinetic energy of the spinning turbine blades is then converted to electrical energy as the blades interact with the magnetic field to generate electricity; 3) Finally, this electrical energy powers the lamp, converting it into light energy for illumination.
At the start of a swing the pendulum has lots of potential energy but no kinetic energy. As it moves downwards the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. In the upswing the kinetic energy is converted back into potential energy. Some of the energy is converted into heat by friction which is why the pendulum slows down.

Chemical energy to thermal energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy
Potential to kinetic to electric energy conversion takes place when a rubber powered aeroplane flies.
When a pendulum is released to fall, it changes from Potential energy to Kinetic Energy of a moving object. However, due to friction (ie: air resistance, and the pivot point) and gravity the pendulum's swing will slowly die down. A pendulum gets its kinetic energy from gravity on its fall its equilibrium position which is the lowest point to the ground it can fall, however, even in perfect conditions (a condition with no friction) it can never achieve a swing (amplitude) greater than or equal to its previous swing. Every swing that the pendulum makes, it gradually looses energy or else it would continue to swing for eternity without stopping. Extra: Using special metals that react little to temperature, finding a near mass-less rod to swing the bob (the weight) and placing the pendulum in a vacuum has yielded some very long lasting pendulums. While the pendulum will lose energy with every swing, under good conditions the amount of energy that the pendulum loses can be kept relatively small. Some of the best pendulum clocks can swing well over a million times.
