How does the form of energy change for a battery releasing energy?

• Electrical energy is converted to thermal energy.
• Mechanical energy is stored in the battery until it is released into chemical energy

• Nuclear energy is released as the battery discharges.
• Chemical energy in the battery is converted to electrical energy.
