Answer to Problem 8E
Gas stoves convert chemical energy from natural gas into heat energy. Also, light bulbs convert electrical energy into light energy.
Explanation of Solution
According to the first law of thermodynamics, it is not possible to destroy or create any form of energy in any process. The energy only transfers from one to another form.
For illustration, gas stoves convert chemical energy from natural gas into heat energy. And light bulbs convert electrical energy into light energy.
In both the cases, one form of energy is converted into another form of energy but the energy of both the forms is equal.
