Kekekalan energi
Dalam ilmu fisika, hukum kekekalan energi menyatakan bahwa jumlah energi dari sebuah sistem tertutup itu tidak berubah—ia akan tetap sama.[1][2] Energi tersebut tidak dapat diciptakan maupun dimusnahkan ; namun ia dapat berubah dari satu bentuk energi ke bentuk energi lain. Contohnya, energi kimia dapat diubah menjadi energi kinetik dalam ledakan dinamit.
Hukum Kekekalan Energi (Hukum I Termodinamika) berbunyi:
Energi dapat berubah dari satu bentuk ke bentuk yang lain tetapi tidak bisa diciptakan atau dimusnahkan (konversi energi).
