Question
- describe the main energy conversion that takes place in a motor: image of a motor options: electrical energy into mechanical energy; electrical energy into thermal energy; electrical energy into radiant energy; thermal energy into electrical energy; mechanical energy into electrical energy; thermal energy into mechanical energy
Brief Explanations
A motor's function is to convert electrical energy (supplied via the wires) into mechanical energy (to make the shaft rotate and perform work). The other options are incorrect: thermal energy conversion is a by - product (not the main conversion), radiant energy is not the main output, and the reverse conversions (like mechanical to electrical) are for generators, not motors.
