(Uhm help?) The law of conservation of energy states that when there is an energy transfer or transformation, energy is lost.

Answer:

ae you trying to find the meaning?

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed - only converted from one form of energy to another. This means that a system always has the same amount of energy, unless it's added from the outside. The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.

ex: the cue ball is shot at a stationary 8 ball. The cue ball has energy. When the cue ball hits the 8 ball, the energy transfers from the cue ball to the 8 ball, sending the 8 ball into motion. The cue ball loses energy because the energy it had has been transferred to the 8 ball, so the cue ball slows down.

Assuming this is a true/false question, the answer would be false.

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed; it simply changes forms.

Unless you are saying that some energy would be lost as heat, This is true.
