What are the conversions of electrical energy give 5 examples?

-- An LED converts electrical energy to light energy. -- A coffee percolator converts electrical energy to heat energy. -- An old-fashioned light bulb converts electrical energy to light energy and heat energy, both at the same time. -- A loudspeaker or ear-bud converts electrical energy to sound energy. -- An electric motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy. -- A radio transmitter converts electrical energy to low-frequency electromagnetic energy. -- A battery sitting in its charger converts electrical energy to chemical energy.


If you use a toaster to make toast the toaster converts electrical energy into solar energy and heat energy heat energy only heat energy and light energy or light energy only?

It doesn't matter what you use the toaster for, or whether you are using it at all.When it's ON, it converts electrical energy into both heat and light, whether or notthere is any bread in it.


Does the spring in a flashlight complete the circuit or does it convert electrical energy into light energy?

A flashlight's spring is just to ensure a good electrical contact at both ends of the battery.


How are generators and motors similar?

The basic idea behind a generator is that it converts mechanical energy (kinetic) to electrical energy in the form of electric current. A motor does this process in reverse: it uses electrical energy and converts it into mechanical energy (it produces motion). This is, presumably, what your physics teacher wants to hear.


Light energy is proof of which Conservation Law?

I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum. A photon has both energy and momentum.I am not sure how much of a proof this is; but light energy is involved both in conservation of energy, and in conservation of momentum.

What converts electrical energy into light?

We see the conversion of electrical energy into light in both incandescent and fluorescent lamps. The light emitting diode (LED) also does this.

When a lamp is turned on electrical energy changes into what form of energy?

The older generation of bulb(one in witch heating metal coil was used) convert electrical energy into both heat and light energy and consume more energy as some energy is lost as a heat energy. The newer generation of electrical bulb (C.F.L.) convert almost all electrical energy into light energy and consume much less electrical energy.


A 100 watt light bulb converts electrical energy into electromagnetic energy at a slower rate that a 40 watt light bulb?

The higher the wattage, the more electrical energy is being used. In a light bulb the electrical energy is converted to EM energy which appears in both visible and infrared parts of the spectrum, so the answer is no, it will be at a higher rate for a 100 watt bulb


An electric motor converts electrical energy to potential energy?

They don't. An electric motor is designed to convert electrical energy to kinetic energy, not the other way round. A device that converts kinetic energy to electrical energy is called a generator or a dynamo. Sometimes the same device can do both things (convert in both directions), but since the device is especially optimized for one function, it may not be very good at the other one.


How are a solar cell and a generator alike?

They're alike in that they both convert other forms of energy into electrical energy. A solar cell converts radiant energy from the sun into electrical current. A generator converts mechanical energy -- which may come from a wide variety of sources -- into electricity.


What is the energy conversion for a coal fired generator?

A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, while a motor does the opposite - it converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Both devices work because of electromagnetic induction, which is when a voltage is induced by a changing magnetic field.


Does a light bulb give out heat and sound energy?

An incandescent bulb in an AC circuit does give off both heat and sound energy; the heat because the filament is hot, and the sound because the varying voltage results makes the filament vibrate. Generally it's not a very LOUD sound, but bulbs which are about to burn out often emit a noticeable buzzing.


When electric flows through the mental filament of a light bulbelectrical energy is converted to?

The electrical energy is converted to both heat and light energy.


Do light waves carry electrical and magnetic energy?

While it is not known for certain, it appears that light carries both electrical and magnetic energy. More study and research is needed.


What does a microphone and speaker have in common?

They both convert between electrical impulses and sound waves. The microphone converts sound waves into electrical impulses and the loudspeaker converts electrical impulses into sound waves.
