13. The picture illustrates the solar panels that power all of the appliances in Joshua's house. What energy transformations occur that enable Joshua to bake cookies for his family in the oven? (1 point)

Question

Responses

heat energy → chemical energy → light energy
heat energy → chemical energy → light energy

light energy → electrical energy → heat energy
light energy → electrical energy → heat energy

light energy → electrical energy → chemical energy
light energy → electrical energy → chemical energy

heat energy → light energy → heat energy

Answer 1

The correct response is:

light energy → electrical energy → heat energy

In this transformation, sunlight (light energy) is converted into electrical energy by the solar panels. Then, the electrical energy is used to power the oven, which converts this electrical energy into heat energy to bake the cookies.
