In this system, mechanical energy from the cyclist is converted to a lot of mechanical energy and a little bit of thermal energy when she rides her bike. The mechanical energy from the turning bicycle wheel spins the turbine which generates electrical energy. The fluorescent light bulb converts this energy into two new forms: a lot of light and very little thermal energy.
