∙ 11y agoThe first law of thermodynamics says that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be changed from one form to another. One of the implications of this is that the total energy of the universe is finite. Einstein's famous equation E=mc**2 provides a corollary to the first law by demonstrating that mass and energy are interrelated. Since they are related by his equation, the first law could be modified to say that the combination of mass and energy is finite for the universe, or that matter is just another form of energy.
When energy is converted to mass the increase in mass is usually so tiny that it is not detectable within experimental uncertainty but it can be calculated. The one exception to this is when high energy photons (e.g. gamma rays) convert to a matter-antimatter particle pair. However the antimatter particle so rapidly collides with a matter particle, converting back to a high energy photon that although easily detectable in experiments it has no practical value.

The law of conservation of energy
Apex
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted between forms. This law is often summarized as "energy conservation" and forms the basis of many principles in physics and engineering. It implies that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant over time.

The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the Law of Energy Conservation.
The first law of thermodynamics, also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another.
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system; it can only change forms. This law is also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy.
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another. This is a restatement of the law of conservation of energy.
Another name for the first law of thermodynamics is the law of energy conservation.

The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the Law of Energy Conservation.
That's related to the First Law of Thermodynamics - the Law of Conservation of Energy.
Not exactly. The first law of thermodynamics, i.e. the law of conservation of energy, also accounts for heat as one of the many forms that energy can take. There is no one law called "the law of thermodynamics", but there are several "Laws of Thermodynamics" (note the plural form "LAWS").
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system; it can only change forms. This law is also known as the Law of Conservation of Energy.

There is no commonly accepted law by that name, as far as I know. Two important laws about energy are the First Law of Thermodynamics and the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
The first law of thermodynamics is related to the conservation of energy. It states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another.
You didn't specify what you mean with "the following".To the best of our knowledge, conservation of energy ALWAYS applies. There are no known cases when you can create energy out of nothing, or simply make it disappear.
The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only transferred or converted from one form to another. It can also be expressed as the principle of conservation of energy, where the total energy within a closed system remains constant over time.
Another name for the Law of Conservation of Energy is the First Law of Thermodynamics, which states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred or transformed.
