What you an example of converting light energy to electrical energy?
silicon solar panels that convert light energy to electrical energy. they are known as photo diodes
How resistors are converting electrical energy into heat and light energy?
i really dont know
I have energy. Who has a device that converts radiant energy into electrical energy?
You could be a Solar electrical panel made up of many solar cells converting our Sun's radiant light energy into electricity.
How do you save light energy?
By converting it to electrical energy and then chemical energy through photovoltaic cells and storing in some form of battery or capacitor.
Is a lamp that is switched on kinetic energy?
A thing is not energy, it can possess energy. In this case the light, being on, is converting electrical energy to heat and light. The person switching it on, and the switch while it is moving, have kinetic energy.
What does photovoltaics stand for?
Photo - photon of light energy. Volt - unit of electrical potential. Put these together with the suffix aics and you have the word photovoltaics which are devices for converting light energy to electrical energy directly, usually called Solar Cells.
Why are motors lamps and other resistors considered a loads in electrical circuits?
Because they use electrical energy to produce mechanical energy or heat energy
Compare the different methods in terms of the dissipation of energy and their efficiency?
but i think you are talking about efficiency of conversion of energy. Various energy-converting systems have different efficiencies. For example, a CFL or fluorescent bulb is more efficient at converting electrical energy to light than an incandescent bulb.
What does it mean to use energy?
Using up energy is basically converting energy from its original form to such a form in which it becomes useless or it is converted to less usable form. FOR EXAMPLE - When you use electricity to light a bulb. electrical energy is converted to heat energy which is in turn converted to light energy. Now you cannot get back heat energy from that light and hence you cannot get back electrical energy. So here electrical energy is converted to such a form in which is cannot be used further. It is said to be used

5 examples of transformation of energy?
TV- Electrical energy to light and sound energy Radio and stereo - Electrical energy to sound energy Fan- electrical energy to mechanical energy Toaster - Electrical energy to heat energy Light bulb- Electrical energy to Light energy Battery or cell - Chemical energy to electrical energy
Is sunlight the process of light energy converting into chemical energy?
No.
