Give a real-world example of an energy transformation that uses two of the following forms of energy: chemical, mechanical, nuclear, gravitational, radiant, electrical, thermal (heat), and/or sound.

Nuclear energy gets converted into heat energy during a detonation and is also used in nuclear power plants where the heat energy form the nuclear energy gets converted into mechanical energy by converting water into steam, rotating the turbines and converting that into electrical energy

Explanation:

Or heat engines, such as the internal combustion engine used in cars, or the steam engine. (Heat - Mechanical energy)

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j
