What is the difference between conduction, convection, and radiation? Give an example of each as well. 2. Give an example of kinetic energy in your life today. 3. Give an example of potential energy in your life today. 4. Describe how chemical energy can be transformed into mechanical energy. 5. Describe how electrical energy can be transformed into sound energy. 6. What is the difference between transfer of energy and transformation of energy?
