Question
solar - powered cars use energy from the sun to work. a panel on the car absorbs light energy from the sun, which then generates an electric current. this electric current, in turn, allows the car to move. which shows the correct order of energy transformations that take place in a solar - powered car? electrical, chemical, kinetic; electrical, kinetic, radiant; radiant, electrical, mechanical; radiant, chemical, electrical
The solar - panel on the car absorbs radiant energy (light energy) from the Sun. It converts this radiant energy into electrical energy to generate an electric current. The electric current then allows the car to move, which is a form of mechanical energy (kinetic energy of the moving car). So the correct order of energy transformations is radiant, electrical, mechanical.
