Question

in an electric generator, the energy transformation begins as --
mechanical and becomes electrical

electrical and becomes chemical

mechanical and becomes chemical

electrical and becomes mechanical

Explanation:

An electric generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It takes mechanical energy (for example, from a turbine driven by steam, water, or wind) and converts it into electrical energy. So the energy transformation in a generator starts with mechanical energy being converted to electrical energy. Looking at the options, the first option says "mechanical and becomes electrical" which matches this energy transformation.

Answer:

mechanical and becomes electrical
