What type of energy provided by the lamp helps Jan read?

Electromagnetic energy, electrical lighting is one of the many ways electrical energy is used. Electric current flows in these devices when they are connected to batteries or plugged into an electric outlet. An electric device uses the electrical energy provided by the current flowing in the device.

What type of energy do plants transfer to animals?

Chemical energy, but animals can change that to dynamic, kinetic, thermal, aural or even electric energy. "Aural" means "sound", in case you didn't know. Hope that helps, from PNE.


How does a heater heats the room?

When electric heaters are plugged into the socket, electrical current passes through a metal that converts electrical energy into heat energy. Elsewhere in the heater electrical current passes through a motor attached to a fan. It starts turning. Finally, air from the fan is heated by the metal that has now turned red from heat and is ejected into the room wich raises its temprature. The same principal is used in hair dryers. Hope this helps.


Is electrical energy converted to mechanical energy by fuel?

Fuel helps but electrical energy is converted to mechanical energy through a motor, a machine with magnets that converts the electrical current into mutually repelling magnets causing mechanical motion.
