A glow stick is a plastic tube that contains two separate liquids. When the liquids are mixed, they glow. The diagrams show the process that causes a glow stick to emit light.
The inner and outer tube separate two reactive substances from each other.
When the outer tube is bent, the inner tube cracks, mixing the reactive substances.
The glow from the reaction fills the entire glow stick and light is emitted.
The glow stick stops glowing when the substances are finished reacting.
Based on the diagrams, what energy transformations occur when using a glow stick?
A.Chemical energy cracks the inner tube, which starts a reaction that transforms the thermal energy into light energy
B. Thermal energy cracks the inner tube, which starts a chain reaction that transforms potential energy into light energy
C. Mechanical energy cracks the inner tube, which starts a reaction that transforms potential energy into light energy
D. Potential energy cracks the inner tube, which trans a reaction that transforms mechanical energy into light energy
