Question by Freida: What are some ways that that people, nature, or machines convert one type of energy to another?

I need to know AT LEAST 12 ways that people, nature, or machines convert one type of energy to another. I already know of hydroelectric dams.

And if you could explain a little about each, that would be very nice. =D

Thanks

A boulder sitting at a top of a hill that begins to roll down a hill is potential energy turning into kinetic energy.

Clapping hands together turns kinetic energy into heat and sound.
