Mohit Pandey Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Let us think if the conversion of the energy does not happen, what affect willl it have on the life of the earth? I think that life could not be possilble because then plants could not convert light & heat energy of Sun into chemical energy. Thus, no food for the whole living world. What's your view?:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your view?:evil: I feel that you suffer from a gross misconception about energy, dear Mohit. I would suggest that you read the article about energy on wikipedia. Energy is not converted, it can only be transformed. There is a very subtle difference between conversion and transformation.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallenrm Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 The word conversion is generally limited to substances, or persons in the context of religious faith, for instance an element is converted by virtue of a nuclear decay or a Hindu is converted into a christian. Energy is not a substance, it is a concept. Hence the word transformation is much more appropriate. You may check a dictionary or visit the site Word seek. ! :hihi: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
