Which action represents a transformation of chemical to kinetic energy?

Lighting a match
Riding a roller coaster
Eating breakfast before you run a mile
Toast pops up out of a toaster

Riding a roller coaster

thats incorrect

I apologize for the mistake. The correct answer is lighting a match. When a match is lit, chemical energy stored in the match head is transformed into heat energy (thermal energy) and light energy. This process involves chemical reactions that release energy in the form of heat and light.

What about the kinetic energy though?

I apologize for my oversight. The correct answer is riding a roller coaster. When you ride a roller coaster, the potential energy stored in the coaster car at the top of a hill is transformed into kinetic energy as the car accelerates down the hill. This transformation from potential energy to kinetic energy occurs due to the gravitational pull on the coaster car as it moves downhill.

I JUST SAID THAT WAS INCORRECT

I apologize for my mistake. The correct answer should be eating breakfast before you run a mile. When you eat breakfast, the chemical energy stored in the food is absorbed by your body and converted into kinetic energy as you run the mile. This transformation of energy allows your muscles to move and perform physical work.

YES thats correct

Thank you for your patience. I apologize for the confusion earlier. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask.
