What is an example of a process that would satisfy the
conservation of energy principle but not actually be observed
in nature?

Solution

Law of conservation of energy states that \"Energy of the universe remains constant. Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, but it can be transformed from one form to another.

Example 1 : Water is stored at height with potential energy, the water flows and its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, further it flows to rotate the turbine with mechanical energy. Then the kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy. In our house the electrical energy is converted into luminous energy, heat energy etc.

Example 2: Heat up the air in your house (that is, raise the thermal energy), and open the windows, and the warmer air escapes. The warmer air will be mixed with ambient air and heat that up. This is just an exchange between air molecules to reach a common state of internal energy - no energy tranformations here, just transport from one air molecule to another.
