Question

A circuit is shown in the picture above. Energy is transferred first from the battery to the circuit wire and then from the circuit wire to the light. What energy transformations occur between these two transfers?
A.) Energy is transformed first from chemical energy to mechanical energy and then from mechanical energy to light and heat energy.
B.) Energy is transformed first from chemical energy to light and heat energy and then from light and heat energy to electrical energy.
C.) Energy is transformed first from chemical energy to electrical energy and then from electrical energy to light and heat energy.
D.) Energy is transformed first from mechanical energy to chemical energy and then from chemical energy to light and heat energy.

Answer 1

It is C because you have to have a battery or an outlet if not outlet than a battery which is chemical

Answer 2

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The energy from the battery is transferred to wire and then from wire to the light. In this case the energy is transformed from one form to another form.

First the energy is in the form of chemical energy( battery) and then it is converted into electrical energy ( wire) from electrical energy it passes on to the light and heat energy( light)

This is the conservation of energy as it cannot be generated or destroyed so it is only transformed from one form to another form.
