Question
16 which choice correctly identifies the energy transformation that powers the light - bulb? a thermal to mechanical to electrical b chemical to mechanical to nuclear c nuclear to chemical to mechanical d electrical to mechanical to thermal
The heat from the source (like the red - hot object) is thermal energy. It causes the wheel to turn, converting thermal energy to mechanical energy. The mechanical motion of the wheel is then used to generate electricity which powers the light - bulb, converting mechanical energy to electrical energy.
