During a movie night at Avery's house, Henry and William were curious about how the energy transfers on the T.V. they were watching. Can you explain it to them?
The sun shines on the T.V., converting solar energy to light energy, which then turns into thermal energy.
The T.V. uses electricity, which is then converted to solar energy and finally to mechanical energy.
The T.V. uses nuclear energy, which is then converted to electricity.
The T.V. uses electrical energy, which is then converted to light and sound energy.
