Plenty of these to quote. For example a power station generating set converts the mechanical power of the steam turbine into the electrical output of the generator.
In an auto, mechanical power from the engine is converted to electrical power in the AC generator which powers all the car's electrics and charges the battery

Friction is one example of converting mechanical energy into heat energy. One way you can test this is to take a stiff metal wire, like a piece of coat hanger wire. Then keep bending back and forth. The area inside the bend will be hot to the touch.

Where do power companies get their electricity from?
They generate it by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy using generators inside power plants.
How to calculate the electrical energy for machine?
Electricity does not occur in natural state. It has to be generated by converting one form of energy into electric energy. The electric energy of any machine can be calculated by subtracting the all losses occurring in a machine (electrical, mechanical and magnetic) from total input power or energy.
A generator transforms?
A generator transforms mechanical energy into electrical energy.
In a fan electrical energy turns into?
Mechanical energy
What are biological transducers?
Such type of transducer which can covert bio energy into any other form like mechanical or electrical. Example are engine or crystal. Engine convert energy from bio-fossil fuels to mechanical and crystal like tourmaline into electrical oscillations.
How do you change electrical energy into mechancal energy?
Motor is an example of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy
How does the dynamo changes mechanical energy to electrical energy?
Dynamo moves magnets relative to electrical conductors, thus converting mechanical energy to electrical energy.
What is a device that uses electromagnetic induction to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy?
Electrical generator: A device for converting mechanical (kinetic) energy into electrical energy.
What is a wind turbine often used for?
converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
What are example of electrical to mechanical?
An electric motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.
What are the uses for a dynamo?
A dynamo is another name for an a.c. or d.c. electrical generator. They are used for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.?
In electricity generation, an electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electric current to flow through an external circuit.
What device produces electricity in bicycle the device powers the lamp by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy?
A dynamo
A generator can transforms into?
Generator can transform mechanical energy into electrical energy by converting the rotational motion of its turbine into electrical current through electromagnetic induction.
A device that transforms electrical energy to mechanical energy?
A motor is one example of a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
What will happen if there is no heat in energy transformation?
That is normal for example when energy is transformed from mechanical directly into electrical i a generator, or electrical to mechanical in a motor.
Where do power companies get their electricity from?
They generate it by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy using generators inside power plants.
