What kind of energy transformations occur in a satellite?

In a satellite, electrical energy is transformed into kinetic energy during launch, allowing the satellite to reach its desired orbit. Once in orbit, solar panels on the satellite convert solar energy into electrical energy to power its systems. Additionally, some satellites use radioisotope thermoelectric generators to convert heat energy into electrical energy.

Do flashlights contain or use mechanical energy?

No, flashlights do not typically contain or use mechanical energy. Instead, they use electrical energy to power the light-emitting components, such as the light bulb or LED. The electrical energy is converted into light energy by these components.
