Question

What is the difference between conservation of energy and energy conservation , Is both the same?

Answer 1

I really think conservation of energy would be considered to keep energy stored as long as possible and avoiding using it unless, you absolutely need it.

Therefore energy conservation I think would mean that you use it as efficiently as possible when you do use it.

Answer 2

Conservation of Energy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservatio...

Energy Conservation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_cons...

Answer 3

Greshnab has it right, these are not the same thing.

Conservation of energy although it can be used in a sentence to mean the same as the later, it is a Physics law from Einstien.

Answer 4

Well I guess I logged in two hrs. to late.  Same, same, it's a matter of playing with words.

Example:  The frame is to big for the picture, or the picture is to small for the frame.

Answer 5

without doubt, this both things mean the same as there is just play of words here. they both mean - Energy conservation/conservation of energy is the practice of decreasing the quantity of energy used. It may be achieved through efficient energy use, in which case energy use is decreased while achieving a similar outcome, or by reduced consumption of energy services.

Answer 6

Conservation of energy was a physics theory prior to fully understanding Einsteins theory of relativity.. it stated that "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed it can only change form"

it's companion theory was the same for mass... understanding of Einsteins theory has led us to combine the two into one theory.

energy conservation is an attempt by people to utilize less energy either by doing away with unnecessary energy expenses (raising the thermostat, turning off unneeded lights etc) or by using more efficient loads (compact florescent bulbs etc)

they are completely different.

Answer 7

They're the exact same thing, just messed around with.

Answer 8

Conserve energy means to observe how you flip the switch on and off so to say

.. . ..

Energy conservation means having something attached that monitors the usage of a utilities to keep it to min usage

-- Light wall switches that are timed to shut off

-- Light fixtures that come on and go off when someone enters and moves with in an area

And turns off the fixture when no movement has been detected with in a period of time
