    The job that the fan is designed and built to do is to convert the electrical energy it uses into the kinetic (motion) energy of moving air.

    I can't really guarantee that it accomplishes that with MOST of the electrical energy it uses, because I don't know how efficient your fan is. For example, if it's a really old fan, and one blade has the end broken off, and a lot of dust and mosquitoes have gotten into the motor, and it shakes and vibrates and makes a lot of noise when it's running, then it's converting a lot of the electrical energy into thermal energy (it gets hot when it runs) and some into sound energy too.

    If you can live without the word "most" in the question, then we can assume that the fan is well designed and running like a top, and the answer is definitely choice-B.
