Best Answer

A motor can be used to produce both types of energy, kinetic and potential. It is not in itself a form of energy. It can produce kinetic energy by driving the wheels of a car, or it can produce potential energy by charging the battery in the same car. These are only two of a myriad of examples.

Depends on the type of motor. An electric motor converts electrical energy to magnetic energy to mechanical energy. A combustion engine- like a car, converts chemical energy to heat energy to mechanical energy.

What causes a motor to become hot when running?

What motors do is to convert one type of energy into another type of energy. And as that conversion is never 100% efficient, some of the energy is turned into heat, which heats up the motor.


What type of energy transformations occurs in a motor?

In an electric motor, electrical energy (because it uses electricity) is transformed into mechanical energy (because it performs action). An electric mixer is a good example of this.
