Which energy transformations will take place when the switch is flipped to the "On" position?

a
Electrical energy from the switch will be transformed into sound energy, which moves through the wire to the bell.
b
Chemical energy from the battery will be transformed into sound energy, which moves through the wire to the bell.
c
Electrical energy from the switch will be transformed into chemical energy, which is then transformed into sound energy by the bell.
d
Chemical energy from the battery will be transformed into electrical energy, which is then transformed into sound energy by the bell.

1 answer

The correct answer is:

d. Chemical energy from the battery will be transformed into electrical energy, which is then transformed into sound energy by the bell.

When the switch is flipped to the "On" position, the chemical energy stored in the battery is converted into electrical energy that then flows through the circuit. This electrical energy ultimately powers the bell, causing it to produce sound energy.
