Question 16 • Chemistry A.1 - F26 - Jacob Metsker

Which is the best example of how electromagnetic energy is used?

Answer
A
a pot of boiling water on a gas stove
B
a patient receiving an X-ray in a hospital
C
a car burning gasoline to power the engine
D
a car of a roller coaster moving quickly down a slope

Explanation

Electromagnetic energy travels in waves, including X-rays. In a hospital, X-rays pass through the body to create images, so a patient receiving an X-ray is the best example. Boiling water and burning gasoline mainly involve heat and chemical energy, while a roller coaster moving downhill involves mechanical energy.
