Energy that comes from the flow of electricity

• Electrical energy

• light energy

• mechanical energy

• thermal energy

Mrs. Granson touched her hot iron and burned herself. This is an example of how heat flows

• from something cooler to something warmer

• something hard to something soft

• something soft to something hard

• something warmer to something cooler
