In a nuclear power station, nuclear fission is used to generate electricity. Which of the following sequences correctly shows how energy is transferred through different forms in this process?
nuclear energy→thermal energy→kinetic energy→electrical energy\text{nuclear energy} \rightarrow \text{thermal energy} \rightarrow \text{kinetic energy} \rightarrow \text{electrical energy}nuclear energy→thermal energy→kinetic energy→electrical energy
nuclear energy→kinetic energy→thermal energy→electrical energy\text{nuclear energy} \rightarrow \text{kinetic energy} \rightarrow \text{thermal energy} \rightarrow \text{electrical energy}nuclear energy→kinetic energy→thermal energy→electrical energy
thermal energy→nuclear energy→kinetic energy→electrical energy\text{thermal energy} \rightarrow \text{nuclear energy} \rightarrow \text{kinetic energy} \rightarrow \text{electrical energy}thermal energy→nuclear energy→kinetic energy→electrical energy
nuclear energy→electrical energy→thermal energy→kinetic energy\text{nuclear energy} \rightarrow \text{electrical energy} \rightarrow \text{thermal energy} \rightarrow \text{kinetic energy}nuclear energy→electrical energy→thermal energy→kinetic energy
