Responses

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

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

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

heat energy → light energy → heat energy

Answer 1

To enable Joshua to bake cookies for his family in the oven using solar panels, the correct energy transformation is:

light energy → electrical energy → heat energy

Here's how it works:

1. Solar panels convert light energy from the sun into electrical energy.
2. This electrical energy powers the oven, which then transforms the electrical energy into heat energy to bake the cookies.

So, the correct response is: light energy → electrical energy → heat energy.
