When you turn on a lamp what energy does it convert to?
It goes from electric to light to heat .
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 do solar cells turn energy from the sun directly into?
electric energy
What energy is wasted in a microwave?
Electric energy. Some turn to heat in the machine, some turn to noise.
What are some examples of how electricity can be converted to other forms of energy?
Electricity is stored as chemical energy when you charge a battery. Electric motors turn electricity into kinetic energy. Electric ranges/ovens/stoves turn electricity into heat energy.
When you turn on a lamp what energy does it convert to?
It goes from electric to light to heat .
When you turn on a lamp and the light bulb becomes warm which energy conversion causes this heating of the light bulb?
Electrical energy absorbed by the lamp's filament produces thermal energy as well as light.
What happens to electricity when you turn on an elactric lamp?
you use up energy and it is turned into heat
Does a lamp have chemical energy?
when you turn on a lamp it is first light energy to chemical energy!
Explain why electric motors and generators are opposites?
Electric motors take electric energy and turn it into kinetic energy Generators take mechanical energy and turn it into electric energy
When you turn on a toaster will the electric energy turn to magnetic energy?
No it wont

What energy transfers takes place when the turbine turn the generator?
kinetic energy is transfered to electric energy

electric energy
What energy is wasted in a microwave?
Electric energy. Some turn to heat in the machine, some turn to noise.
What energy transformation takes place when you turn a radio?
sound to electric energy
What happens if you turn off the electric current in the solenoid?
If you turn off the electric current in the solenoid, the solenoid quits pulling its armature.
