The question is basically asking what is happening to the energy (that is in the form of heat) when it is being absorbed by an object. The energy being absorbed from the heat source is being turned into kinetic energy. This can be explained by temperature change. As you add more heat to an object, the temperature rises. Since temperature is the average kinetic energy of all of the molecules in an object, we can say that as temperature rises so does the kinetic energy of the molecules in the object. Due to the fact that heat is causing the temperature to increase, we can say that the energy from the heat is being turned into kinetic energy.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
False, energy conversion just means the energy is going to be used by another force
Some things that can indicate a chemical change are change of odor, change of color, change in temperature or energy, such as the production or loss of heat. An example could be the rusting of metal, there would be a color change of going from a shiny silver to a dirty, splotchy red color. Some things that indicate a physical change are change of appearance like change of shape, etc. It can also be like a change between a solid to liquid to gas. For example, the cutting of a piece of paper.
It would be in the transition metals
