Describe the mode of energy transformation in a mechanical and quartz clock.

Open in App

Solution

In mechanical clock, when spring is revolved, it becomes a potential energy. when spring is released, it will converted in to kinetic energy, so that the hand of the clock is rotated.

In a quartz clock, the cell has chemical energy. it will converted in to kinetic energy.
