Why do you need to transform energy into another form?

Answer 1

Energy needs to be transformed into another form because in certain cases only this new form of energy is useful to us.

E.g. A power station burns coal (to make thermal energy)to heat up water which turns to steam (this has kinetic energy) and the steams passes through turbines which get spun by the steam. The spinning turbines create electricity which it transported to homes using the national grid and we can use it for our everyday home appliances.

Answer 2

Energy needs to be transformed into another form in order to be harnessed and used for various purposes. Different forms of energy are more suitable for different tasks, and by transforming energy, we can make it more usable and efficient for specific applications. This process allows us to convert energy from one form to another to meet our needs effectively.
