Give one example of each of the following transformations of energy.
(iii) Electrical energy to light energy.
(iv) Chemical energy to heat energy.
(v) Chemical energy to light energy.
Answers
Answer:
iii)In the case of an electric bulb, the electrical energy is converted to light and heat. The amount of electrical energy put into a bulb = the amount of light energy (desirable form) plus the heat energy that comes out of the bulb (undesirable form).
iv)Coal is burned at a power plant.
v)Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat. ... Wood: Combustion reaction converts chemical energy into light and heat. Petroleum: Can be burned to release light and heat or changed into another form of chemical energy, such as gasoline.
Explanation:
iii- forexample we put electric energy into a bulb and bulb produce light (which is desired form of output from a bulb) but we also get heat from the bulb.... In this case electric bulb the electrical energy is converted into light the light energy.
iv- gasoline is burnt in a car engine as a gas burns small explosion release heat thermal energy which make the piston move so the car go.
v-photosynthesis which change solar energy into chemical energy
