Textbook Question
Chapter 5.6, Problem 5.14YT
Although power plants require several steps to transform potential energy into electrical energy, other devices do this more simply. For example, a battery converts chemical energy to electrical energy in one step. List three other devices that convert energy from one form to another. For each one, name the types of energy and show the path of energy transformations involved.
