∙ 11y agoGravitational energy is converted to kinetic energy as an object falls, and then this kinetic energy can be harnessed to generate electrical current through devices like hydroelectric dams or tidal generators. So, the transition from gravitational to kinetic to electrical current takes place during the movement and energy conversion process of falling objects.
In a hydroelectric power station, the potential energy of water stored in a reservoir is converted into kinetic energy as it flows through turbines. The turbines then drive generators to produce electricity. This process involves a transformation of energy from gravitational potential energy to mechanical energy and then to electrical energy.
Electric current powers electronic devices such as computers and smartphones by converting electrical energy into light, sound, or mechanical movement. Electric current heats and cooks food in appliances like ovens and stoves by transforming electrical energy into thermal energy. Electric current propels electric vehicles by converting electrical energy into kinetic energy, allowing the vehicle to move.
At a hydroelectric power station, potential energy from water stored in a dam is converted to kinetic energy as it flows through turbines. The turbines then convert this kinetic energy into mechanical energy, which drives generators to produce electrical energy.
Depending on the medium, it could be "current" or "spark".
In a generator, mechanical energy from a rotating turbine or engine is converted into electrical energy through the process of electromagnetic induction. The movement of a magnetic field relative to a conductor creates an electric current, resulting in the transformation of mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Elastic potential energy->gravitational potential energy->kinetic energy
In a generator, mechanical energy from a rotating turbine or engine is converted into electrical energy through the process of electromagnetic induction. The movement of a magnetic field relative to a conductor creates an electric current, resulting in the transformation of mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Radiant energy in photovoltaic panels is converted into electrical energy. When sunlight hits the solar cells, it generates an electric current through the photovoltaic effect, producing usable electricity.
In an electric motor, electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. This is achieved through the interaction between an electric current and a magnetic field, which causes the motor to produce rotational motion.
Kinetic energy is converted to electrical energy and heat energy due to friction.
