but the energy itself is always around in some form. It is never lost.
Examples might include:
Green plants transform the Suns energy into food which is a form of
stored chemical energy.
Animals use chemical energy from food to move. The chemical
energy in the food is transformed to mechanical energy.
Carbon-based fuels are all derived from of the bodies of plants and/or
animals. When carbon-based fuels (wood, natural gas, petroleum, or
coal) are burned, the chemical energy which is transformed to heat
energy.
The heat energy from fuels can be transformed to electrical energy at
a power plant.
In an electric circuit the electrical energy can be transformed into
many different types of energy such as mechanical, sound, light, and
heat. (See Indicator 6Se.4)
All of the energy from the electric circuit eventually changes to
another form, much of it heat energy. The energy from all of these
transformations still exists. The total amount of energy is conserved.

LR: Chapter 22-Section 1:
Electromagnets
An electromagnet is formed when a wire in an electric circuit is
wrapped around an iron core producing a magnetic field.
The magnet that results loses its magnetism if the electric current
stops flowing.
Generators
A generator produces an electric current when a coil of wire wrapped
around an iron core is rotated near a magnet.
Generators at power plants produce electric energy for our homes.
A generator contains coils of wire that are stationary, and rotating
magnets are rotated by turbines. Turbines are huge wheels that rotate
when pushed by water, wind, or steam.
Thus mechanical energy is changed to electrical energy by a
generator. Smaller generators may be powered by gasoline.
Simple electric motors
An electric motor changes electrical energy to mechanical energy.
It contains an electromagnet that rotates between the poles of a
magnet.
The coil of the electromagnet is connected to a battery or other source
of electric current.
When an electric current flows through the wire in the electromagnet,
a magnetic field is produced in the coil.
Like poles of the magnets repel and unlike poles of the magnets
attract.
This causes the coil to rotate and thus changes electrical energy to
mechanical energy.
This rotating coil of wire can be attached to a shaft and a blade in an
electric fan.

Radiation is the transfer of energy through space without particles of
matter colliding or moving to transfer the energy.
This radiated energy warms an object when it is absorbed.
Radiant heat energy moves from an area of higher temperature to an
area of cooler temperature.
