What is a device which can convert heat energy to electrical energy?

Thermocouples or Seeback generators do this directly. More practically, any heat source can boil water to make steam, which can turn a generator to produce electricity.


What objects that produce mechanical energy?

all the electrical object and the objects that need a source of energy except for a humans is called mechanical energy


Is the sun a source of sound and electrical energy?

No. At least, sound and electricity doesn't reach us directly from the Sun. What we receive is the sunlight - light energy.


Is an outlet a source of electricity?

No, an outlet is only a distribution point. A source of electrical energy would be the generation station, wind generator, photovoltaic cells (solar energy panels) or other devices that actually produce electrical energy by changing energy from one type (chemical, solar...) to another.


What is one benefit of geothermal energy?

Geothermal energy is a renewable source of electricity, meaning it will not run out. It does not directly produce greenhouse gas emissions.

What is a computer energy source?

Most computers receive electrical energy through a standard wall socket, others receive electrical energy from batteries. Large mainframe computers sometimes receive electrical energy through cables wired directly to the main breaker box, without any plugs/sockets.


How can you use the sun as a source of energy?

Through photovoltaic cells to produce electric current directly, or by direct absorption to heat water


Why are generators helpful?

Electrical generators produce electric power, and generators solve the problem of production. We use electricity in countless ways, and we need to access some kind of generator if we can't directly access the power grid.
