<u>ANSWER:</u>

The muscles and joints allow the hands to perform their function of holding and grasping a wide variety of things.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • The structure of hands is "very delicate and complex". The tendons, nerve fibres, tissues and thin muscles are located right under the skin.
  • The bones of the hand including the 4 carpal bones, 5 metacarpal and 14 finger bones are all connected by joints and ligaments and these allow the hand to grasp things.
  • The wrist is made of "two parts of a joint" that allow the extension and stretching of hands.

Which action best demonstrates the transformation of mechanical energy to heat energy? (HELP FAST)
vredina [299]

The action that BEST demonstrates the transformation of mechanical energy to heat energy is burning a candle (Option B).

Mechanical energy refers to the energy contained by an object due to its motion and/or position. Heat energy refers to the energy caused by the movement of atoms and/or molecules.

Energy transformation refers to the process by which the energy of an object changes from one type to another.

Mechanical energy can be converted into heat energy and vice-versa.

For example, thermal (heat) energy can be used to generate mechanical energy that produces the movement of a turbine generator, which subsequently converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
