उत्तर
- When a bulb is connected to a battery, then the chemical energy of the battery is transferred into electrical energy.
- When the bulb receives this electrical energy, then it converts it into light and heat energy.
- Hence, the transformation of energy in the given situation can be shown as:
Chemical Energy → Electrical Energy → Light Energy + Heat Energy
