how does mechanical energy is converted to electrical through solar cell?

How is mechanical energy is converted to electrical energy through a solar cell? It isn't, what energy is converted is commonly known as solar energy. What happens in a solar cell is that the sun "shoots" photons at the silicon cell. When the photons are shot hard enough, the silicon "breaks" as well as the photon and energy is formed. This is then used as electrical energy.
