A match burning is an example of chemical energy transitioning to light and heat energy.
radient energy
radient energy
It stores chemical energy and when you burn wood, that chemical energy is converted to light energy and heat energy.
Wet and dry cell batteries are an example of chemical energy producing electrical energy.
There are many energy changes which take place when burning a match. First, kinetic or movement energy is used to scrape the match. Then, the chemical energy stored in the match becomes heat energy of the flame. I am not familiar with your use of the term physical energy, but if by this you mean kinetic energy then yes this would be an example of physical energy into chemical energy.

Chemical potential energy being converted to heat energy
Striking a match is an example of an endothermic reaction. It is also an example of simple combustion and a chemical reaction.
Chemical energy, stored in the match.
What form of energy has an unlit match?
It has chemical energy.
Chemical energy.
A match has chemical energy stored. The moment it is used, this is, of course, converted into heat energy.A match has chemical energy stored.

The match has stored energy (chemical energy). This is released as heat and light.
When striking a match, the chemical energy stored in the match-head is transformed into heat and light energy.
Actually, while it does convert energy into light energy, what interests most (to light a fire, for example) is the heat energy.To answer your question, "why", that's because that's what it was designed to do.If you mean "how" - basically, in energy terms, there is some chemical energy stored in the match. When the match burns, this is released as heat (and light, and some sound).
