I'm probably making a big mistake jumping in here, but this rant is
so over the top that it must be responded to even if the response is
ignored. It would appear, David, that you have not the least
understanding of the concept of energy. Energy, being a scalar
quantity does not have "components," although it is possible to
associate the energy that arises due to any given component of the
object's velocity. But the most important aspect of this is that the
path of an electron through a wire, or a resistor is not a straight
line but a more or less "biased random walk" involving lots of
bouncing around between the various atoms of the wire or resistor.
