Where did your energy come from? what types of energy conversions took place that allowed you to complete the laboratory activity? describe the three steps energy diagram on the examples tab of energy conversions section of the why page. this is for the rube goldberg device. pl

The energy we used to do work come from the food we eat. Without eating, the body can not have energy to perform work, that is why we normally do not have much strength when we are hungry.
The food we eat is converted to energy through biochemical processes. The food that we consume has potential energy which is stored in form of chemical energy. In the body, the energy can be converted to heat energy to supply warmth or it can be converted into kinetic energy to perform work.
To be able to do laboratory activity, the chemical energy stored in your cells because of the food you eat will be converted to kinetic energy to perform work.

The sample with the lowest specific heat capacity will have the greatest temperature increase. in this case, it would be platinum.
