Energy conversion simply means that one type of energy is converted to another type of energy.
Electrical into magnetic, and then magnetic into mechanical.
Work is the usage of energy to make something happen. A very simple example is the act of pushing or lifting a box.
Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
no
Kinetic energy
Gravitational potential energy.
Are you referring to the biological energy transformations involved in the body of a person actually lifting a box? Or are you referring to the act of imbuing an inanimate object with potential kinetic energy? If it is the latter; You are investing Potential Kinetic Energy in the box when you put it up on a shelf. If your body were 100% efficient, it should have expendeded as much energy in raising the box as the box then possesses. Because the box can fall, it will have the potential to transform its potential kinetic energy into actual kinetic energy, by virtue of its mass and velocity. It could do work, like falling on a lever which propelled a weight up a column and rang a bell on the top. If it is the former... I don't know.
answer is because lifting a box is gravitational P.E and thinking is not MIGHT BE RIGHT MIGHT NOT
potential because it is storing its energy
Most of the energy related to lifting something up is related to gravitational potential energy, so you basically use the formula for gravitational potential energy: GPE = mgh (mass x gravity x height)
