There are several kinds of energy conversion, for example:
In a fluorescent light bulb, a toaster, and some other devices, it is converted to heat, through a resistance.
In certain devices, e.g. a blender, a small motor converts it to motion.
In fluorescent light bulbs, atoms are excited, and directly emit light.
In a loudspeaker, electricity first causes mechanical vibrations; this in turn is converted into sound.

Appliances that convert electrical energy to light energy include light bulbs, fluorescent tubes, LED lights, and halogen lamps. These devices use electricity to produce visible light for illumination purposes.
Two mechanisms are possible.
The first is simple heating of a filament into incandescence.
The second is to elevate an electron into a higher orbital shell, then allowing it to drop back to its natural state. This is the process operating in a fluorescent lamp, and also in solid state devices such as LEDs.
in a bulb the electrical energy is converted into light energy and heat energy also
this heat energy is minimum in flurocent tubes and we can observe clearly in normal bulbs
A load device is an electrical device or equipment that consumes power from a power source, such as electrical appliances, lights, or machines. It is designed to convert electrical energy into other forms of energy, like light, heat, or mechanical work. Load devices are used to perform specific functions or tasks within an electrical system.
Some devices that convert energy from electrical to other forms include electric motors (electrical to mechanical), electric heaters (electrical to thermal), and loudspeakers (electrical to sound).
This statement is incorrect. The rate at which electrical energy is converted into electromagnetic energy is determined by the wattage of the light bulb. A 100-watt light bulb will convert electrical energy into electromagnetic energy at a faster rate than a 40-watt light bulb.
Light energy is converted into electrical energy in the retina of the eye. The retina contains specialized cells called photoreceptors (rods and cones) that detect light and convert it into electrical signals that can be transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve.
The light dependent reactions take in the light energy and convert that to chemical energy, but it is in the Calvin cycle (light independent reactions) where the chemical energy is stored in a complex sugar.
