Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with the relationships between heat and other forms of energy, such as mechanical, chemical, or electrical energy. It studies how energy is transferred as heat and work between systems, and how these processes affect the properties of materials.

James Joule was famous for his work in the field of thermodynamics, particularly for discovering the relationship between mechanical work and heat energy. This led to the development of the first law of thermodynamics, also known as the conservation of energy principle. Joule's experiments helped establish the concept of the mechanical equivalent of heat.
The Mechanical Equivalent of Heat shows the relationship between mechanical work and heat energy. It has practical applications in the study of thermodynamics and energy conversion processes. For example, it helps in understanding how engines and other mechanical systems can convert heat energy into useful work.
In electrical systems, power is the rate at which electrical energy is converted to other forms of energy, such as heat or mechanical work. Force is a component of mechanical power, representing the effort needed to move an object. In some cases, electrical power can be converted to mechanical power through devices like electric motors, where force is generated to do mechanical work.
The relationship between mechanical energy and heat energy was established by James Prescott Joule through his experiments in the mid-19th century. Joule's work demonstrated the principle of conservation of energy and showed that mechanical work could be converted into heat energy.
Heat Engine is the system that converts the Heat energy into mechanical work while Heat pump converts the work into heat
Sugar melts when heated and it also cooks the sugar.
Friction converts mechanical energy into heat energy due to the resistance between two surfaces in contact. It is a dissipative form of energy that results in the loss of mechanical energy during motion.
Mechanical energy is converted into heat energy when friction is present during the movement of objects. Friction between surfaces creates resistance, causing the mechanical energy to be transformed into heat due to the movement of particles and the generation of thermal energy.
