The batteries of some flashlights can be charged by turning a handle. Which energy transformation is happening in this process?(1 point) Responses kinetic to potential to chemical kinetic to potential to chemical kinetic to electrical to light kinetic to electrical to light kinetic to potential to light kinetic to potential to light kinetic to electrical to chemical

1 answer

The correct response for the energy transformation happening when the batteries of some flashlights are charged by turning a handle is: kinetic to electrical to chemical.

As you turn the handle, you are converting kinetic energy (from your hand) into electrical energy (which charges the batteries), and then that electrical energy is stored as chemical energy in the batteries. Thus, the process involves these transformations.
