Answer:

#4 Electrical energy to thermal energy

Explanation:

You clue there is constant speed, this means that the lift is not accelerating. So if that is the case, the lift is experiencing a resistive force against gravity. The one doing exerting the resistive force is the motor, which runs on electrical energy. Resistive force transforms into heat, so that makes it thermal energy. And so, the answer would be the last case.
