l Here are some things in your home that convert electrical energy into kinetic energy (the energy of motion):
1. A garage door opener. The motor uses electricity to move the garage door up and down.
2. Your stereo or tv. Coils in the speakers use electricity to move the speaker cone back and forth rapidly to make sound.
3. Electric Can Opener. Electricity makes the motor in the can opener turn.
4. Electric Toothbrush. Electricity runs a motor in the toothbrush that wiggles the brush back and forth. 5. Ceiling fan - the electricity genarates the motor inside the fan to rotate. 6. Mixer - same application as the ceiling fan

∙ 15y agoKinetic energy is movement. So, you can use it to heat your home, distribute warm or cold air around the house. Running water is also kinetic energy based. Heating food is based on kinetic energy (all heat is kinetic energy) TV is kinetic energy. So many more examples

What energy is when you turn off a light switch?
electrical energy
What type of energy transformation occurs when a light bulb is turned on?
Electrical energy is transformed into heat and light. More specifically, electrical energy from the household wiring is turned into thermal energy (heat) by the filament which in turn becomes luminous energy (light). Some energy is lost due to resistance in the conductors.
When you turn on a toaster what happens to the electrical energy?
The electrical energy gets transformed into electromagnetic (light) energy and thermal (heat) energy.
Plug a lamp into an electrical socket and you turn electrical energy into this form of energy?
-- None at all if the lamp is switched off.-- If the lamp is switched on, then electrical energy is turned into a little bit ofvisible light energy and a comparatively larger quantity of heat energy.
What is it called when you turn light into electrical energy?
Its called photovoltaic..because the electricity is gained from sunlight or called as turning light to electricity.
What energy is when you turn off a light switch?

What energy change occurs when one of light bulbs is turn on?
electrical energy

Do lawnmowers turn electrical energy into chemical energy?
No, they turn chemical or electrical into kenetic energy
How do you convert kinetic energy into light energy?
I can't think of a direct way, but you could use a generator to turn the kenetic energy into electrical and then into light via a lightbulb or LED.

Which energy changes takes place when a pedling cyclist uses a generator to light his bicycle lamp?
There are 2 energy changes that take place in this action: Mechanical to Light Energy and Mechanical to Electrical Energy. To explain further, when a generator, which uses mechanical energy, is used in turn to light up the bicycle lamp, the light emitted is light energy. At the same time, when the generator lights up the bicycle lamp, the lamp is light up using electrical energy, so mechanical energy also transformed into electrical energy. ===============================> heat and light (in the light bulb)
When you turn on the toaster on what happens to the electrical energy?
When you turn on a toaster, the electrical energy transforms into thermal energy to toast your bread. =]
How are satellites energised?
They have solar panels that turn sunlight into electrical energy, which it stores in a battery, but some of it is used right after changing the light into electrical energy in order to maintain the satellite.
