Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The two forms of energy that are involved in the formation of electricity by lead-acid batteries are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Power obtained from the utilization of chemical and physical resources to do work is known as energy. The law of energy conservation states that the energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy can be converted from one form of energy to another form of energy.
(b)
Interpretation:
The two forms of energy that are involved when electricity turns a starter motor are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Power obtained from the utilization of chemical and physical resources to do work is known as energy. The law of energy conservation states that the energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy can be converted from one form of energy to another form of energy.
(c)
Interpretation:
The two forms of energy that are involved when starter motor turning a flywheel are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Power obtained from the utilization of chemical and physical resources to do work is known as energy. The law of energy conservation states that the energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy can be converted from one form of energy to another form of energy.
(d)
Interpretation:
The two forms of energy that are involved when gasoline explodes into hot gases are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
