In this scenario a battery is used to supply chemical potential energy. The potential energy is transformed and produces kinetic energy. The battery causes a fan to spin and that kinetic energy can also be described as mechanical energy. Check out the values for each: 100 J potential energy results in 75 J of kinetic energy. What conclusion can be drawn from the energy transformation diagram?
Responses
A The chemical potential energy is transformed into 75J of kinetic energy and 25J of heat energy.The chemical potential energy is transformed into 75J of kinetic energy and 25J of heat energy.
B The energy transformation results in 25J of energy being lost.The energy transformation results in 25J of energy being lost.
C The 100J of chemical potential energy releases 25J as friction and 75J of mechanical energy. The 100J of chemical potential energy releases 25J as friction and 75J of mechanical energy.
D Not all of the chemical potential energy is converted; 25J remains as potential energy.
