Describe the energy transformations

Reference no: EM13230521

It's a long way from sunlight to electric light, but the path can be followed. List a possible sequence of events and describe the energy transformations that take place between the sun's light hitting the earth and the light reaching you from an electric light bulb. Assume that the electricity is generated in a gas-fired electrical station.
