A simple example is solar energy. The only energy received by the earth from the sun is radiant energy. This heats the air on the earth creating convection currents, or wind. This wind is a mechanical energy.
An example would be a lightbulb, where electrical energy (mechanical energy in the form of moving electrons) is converted to radiant energy (light). The electrical energy causes the filament in the lightbulb to heat up and emit light energy.
Potential energy - gravitational, chemical, nuclear Kinetic energy - mechanical, thermal, electrical, motion, radiant, sound
A non-example of radiant energy would be sound energy. Sound energy is a type of mechanical energy that is produced by the vibration of particles in a medium, such as air, whereas radiant energy is electromagnetic energy that is transmitted in waves or particles through space.
False. Plants convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis, not mechanical energy. This chemical energy is then used for various cellular processes, including growth.
Non-examples of radiant energy include sound waves, thermal energy transferred through conduction, and mechanical energy generated by moving objects. Only electromagnetic waves, such as light and infrared radiation, are considered forms of radiant energy.

Plants use radiant energy from the sun in the process of photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This glucose provides energy for plant growth and development, and oxygen is released as a byproduct. Mechanical energy is not involved in this process.

The three types of energy used to produce electricity are mechanical energy (from motion), chemical energy (from reactions), and radiant energy (from sunlight). Devices that provide these types of energy include generators (mechanical energy), batteries (chemical energy), and solar panels (radiant energy).
