Answer 1

Explanation:

1.i) In electric iron, the electrical energy changes into heat energy. (ii) In ceiling fan, the electrical energy changes into mechanical energy of rotation

2.power is the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. the ability to be very active or do a lot of work without getting tired

3.i) Burning of a candle: Chemical energy to light energy. ii) Steam Engine: Chemical energy of the coal first changes to heat energy of steam and then heat energy changes into mechanical energy.
