Question

a flashlight uses the chemical energy stored in a battery. the chemical energy is instantly converted into which two forms of energy?
mechanical and nuclear
nuclear and thermal
thermal and mechanical
nuclear and electrical

Explanation:

When a flashlight uses the chemical energy stored in a battery, the chemical - reaction in the battery first produces electrical energy to power the circuit. Some of the electrical energy is then converted into light (not an option here), and also heat (thermal energy) due to resistance in the circuit and components. Mechanical energy is not directly produced from a battery in a flashlight, and nuclear energy is not involved in the operation of a flashlight battery.

Answer:

C. thermal and electrical
