(In all of these examples, not all of the initial energy is converted into the forms mentioned. Just as we read through our forms of energy looking for examples of position or storage as clues for types of potential energy, we can also read through our forms of energy for examples of movement for types of kinetic energy.

For example, when a current flows in a conductor, electrical energy is converted into thermal energy within the conductor. The electrical field, supplied by the voltage source, accelerates the free electrons, increasing their kinetic energy for a short time. This increased kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy through collisions with the ions of the lattice structure of the conductor.

Energy may change in form or be transferred from one system to another, but the total remains the same. When all forms of energy are considered, conservation of energy is written in equation form as KEi+PEi+Wnc+OEi=KEf+PEf+OEf, where OE is all other forms of energy besides mechanical energy.
