Heaven's yes.

Food (chemical) becomes muscular activity.

A battery (chemical) runs a little fan.

A motor (driven by electrical) runs a big fan.

Fuel rods in the power plant (nuclear) boil water (heat) which turns a turbine (mechanical) which runs a generator (mechanical to electrical) which runs everything (back to mechanical).

What are 4 types of nonmechanical energy?

Mechanical energy is potential energy and kinetic energy. It involves such things as gravity and speed. It does not necessarily require a mechanical device be present. Nonmechanical energy is anything else. Electrical energy, heat, nuclear energy, and chemical energy are examples of nonmechanical energy.
