b Heat From burning fuel creates steam that spins a turbine
c Heat from burning fuel creates the transformer
d Heat from burning fuel spins magnets inside an electric motor

Answer 1

b Heat From burning fuel creates steam that spins a turbine

Fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas are burned to heat water and create steam. The steam then spins a turbine, which is connected to a generator, producing electrical energy. This process is commonly used in power plants to generate electricity on a large scale.
