A choke or inductor does not generate energy by itself but it can generate high voltages.
The voltage across an inductor is equal to the inductance in Henrys times the rate of change of current in amps per second. So if an inductor is wired in series with a battery, then when one of the wires is disconnected the current dops quickly generating a high voltage which causes a spark.
This principle is used to generate the high voltage for a spark plug in a car engine.

What kind of energy does lightning posses?
Electrical energy... Very very high voltage.
Wires with high resistance change electrical energy into what?
Heat.
Why are high energy waves dangerous?
High energy waves can burn the body and disrupt chemical and electrical activity in the body.
Can choke replaced by a resistor in fluorescent lamp circuit?
fluorescent lamp work on the principle of ionizing the gas , which requires very high potential difference . this excess voltage is provided by the choke coil . when the starter breaks the circuit , current suddenly drops , thus to maintain the current the choke coil a very high voltage is supplied by the choke coil . this very high voltage cannot be obtained from a resistor or a rheostat , since it being a linear element , thus it cannot be a replacement for choke.
What are some cautions to electrical energy?
It's dangerous at high voltages.
What does an electrical choke do?
A choke is an inductor. The impedance of an inductor is dependent on the frequency of the current flowing through it. The greater the frequency, the higher the impedance. Therefore an inductor when used as a choke blocks the flow of high frequency current (by presenting a high impedance), while allowing low frequency or direct current to flow through it. Its function is to block ("choke") high frequencies while passing low frequencies.
What are two properties of most?
high ionization energy and poor electrical conductivity
What is difference between low grade energy high grade energy?
Low-grade energy: Based on the thermodynamic concepts, an energy source can be called as high-grade or low-grade, depending the ease with which it can be converted into other forms. Thus electrical energy is called a high-grade energy, as it is very easy to convert almost all of it into other energy forms such as thermal energy (say by using an electrical heater). Whereas, it is not possible to convert thermal energy completely into electrical energy (typical efficiencies of thermal power plants are around 30 percent), hence thermal energy is called a low-grade energy. Naturally, high-grade energy sources are more expensive compared to low-grade energy sources.
Energy transformation in the refrigerator?
The Energy Transformations in a Fridge are Electrical Energy, Mechanical Energy, Thermal Energy.I had to do this for science at high school in year 7 and this is the answer!hope it helps
How do you convert nuclear energy to potential energy?
You could for instance convert the nuclear energy to mechanical or electrical energy and use it to pump water up into a high reservoir, where it will have potential energy.
How do you convert electrical energy into potential energy?
You can use the electricity to pump water up into a high reservoir, where it then has mechanical potential energy. Or store it in a battery - chemical potential energy.
Which energy conversion occurs in a battery-power flashlight?
Chemical energy ===>electrical energy ===>(light energy) plus (heat energy)I think that the chemical potential energy in the battery is converted to electrical energy that flows into the high resistance filament in the lightbulb; which due to the above-mentioned resistance, begins to glow, releasing light energy and thermal energy.
