An electric kettle works by heating the liquid water particles which then heat the other articles therefore making the water hot. The Thermal energy causes faster moving that breaks bonds between molecules.

∙ 10y agoThink about it - why do you switch the kettle on? Probably because you want to get it hot. This - the heat (heat energy) is the result of the energy conversion.
The input energy is whatever is used to heat the kettle: for example, chemical energy in propane gas, or electrical energy if you use an electrical stove. Of course, "switch on" sounds as if you are using electrical energy.

What is the energy transfer in an electric cooker?
in the cooker energy transfers that goes in is electric energy, transfers that go out are heat and light energy
What are energy transformations?
=electric fan-electrical energy to mechanical energy!=
What energy transfers in an electric fire?
heat energy
Energy transformations for a microwave?
Electric energy turns into microwaves, which then is absorbed as heat.
What are the energy transfers that occur in a flashlight?

What energy transfers in an electric fire?
heat energy
What type of energy is always lost during energy transformations?
Kinetic or potential energy are always present during energy transfers.
Energy transformations for a microwave?
Electric energy turns into microwaves, which then is absorbed as heat.
How does hydropower transformed?
The potential energy of the falling down water transfers to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy turns turbines that are connected to electric generators where the kinetic energy transfers into electric energy.
An electric drill transfers some energy wastefully. Aside from heat, what else carries the energy that it transfers wastefully?
oio
What energy transfers takes place when the turbine turn the generator?
kinetic energy is transfered to electric energy
What are the energy transfers that occur in a flashlight?
MECHANICAL LIGHT ELECTRIC
What energy transformations in solar calculator?
The energy transformation in a solar calculator is from radiant(light) energy to electrical energy.
What energy transformations take place when you an electric fan to cool a room?
The energy transformation that occurs is electrical to mechanical
What energy transformations take place when you ride a skateboard?
Gravitational / chemical energy from your leg, to kinetic energy when you push the board along which then transfers to heat and sound as you go along.
