Various instances of transformation of energy with images
Answers
ENERGY TRANSFORMATION
it is basically the most important phenomenon around us. Almost every thing around us involves transformation of energy may it be on a mynut level or over a big scale.
Why does it occur?
simple, to obey law of conservation of energy.
energy is neither created nor destroyed.
EXAMPLES OF ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS
Life examples:
1.PHOTOSYNTHESIS:-Energy from the sun allows plants to grow, which stores energy in the form of sugars that other organism consume for their energy.
2.BY PERFORMING TASKS:-When you move, you’re converting the stored chemical energy from your food into mechanical energy.
Technology's example
1.Traditional and Nuclear Power planets convert thermal energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy. you also can’t forget about the release of stored energy from the various fuels to create the thermal energy in the first place.
2.Hydroelectric converts potential energy to mechanical to electrical.
3.Electrical energy is converted into sound energy using a device known as loud speaker.
A DETAILED EXAMPLE OF AUTOMOBILES AT EVERY STEP:-
conventional automobile, these energy transformations are involved:
-Chemical energy in the fuel converted to kinetic energy of expanding gas via combustion
-Kinetic energy of expanding gas converted to linear piston movement
-Linear piston movement converted to rotary crankshaft movement
-Rotary crankshaft movement passed into transmission assembly
-Rotary movement passed out of transmission assembly
-Rotary movement passed through differential
-Rotary movement passed out of differential to drive wheels
-Rotary movement of drive wheels converted to linear motion of the vehicle
