Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy, the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. It is the energy that is generated by an object that is performing work or a job.

You use mechanical energy to walk around what form did this energy have before your body changed it into mechanical energy?
Chemical energy ... in food ... which plants made from solar energy, water, and dirt.
What is the total amount of kinetic energy and potential energy in a system?
Internal energy at the microscopic level and thermodynamic or mechanical energy at the macroscopic level.
What best describes mechanical energy?
combined potential and kinetic energy (:mass and velocity
What is a common energy transformation?
There are 6 kinds of transformatons: 1.Mechanical Energy 2.Thermal Energy 3.Chemical Energy 4.Electrical Energy 5.Electromagnetic Energy 6.Nuclear Energy The most common is probably Mechanical or Electrical.
What are some examples of heat energy transformation?
Thermal energy, mechanical energy, electrical energy and light energy.
What is energy transformation in motor?
motor is of mechanical energy which is made of kinetic energy
What energy transformed in motors?
motor is of mechanical energy which is made of kinetic energy

How do you convert thermal energy into electrical energy and are electrical energy and mechanical energy the same thing?
I don't know how to convert it, but I'll answer the second question.Mechanical energy is made from say...a Bike, the energy that makes it move and pulls it forward is considered mechanical energy. Electrical energy is made from a lightbulb, or anything that is electrical. So to answer that question..No, mechanical energy is not the same as electrical energy.Answer:Electrical Energy is consumed by, it is not made from a lightbulb or anything that is electrical... Steam (thermal energy) drives a turbine which drives a generator (mechanical energy) which produces electrical energy.No they are not the same thing aside from both being forms of energy.Electrical energy can be converted into mechanical energy such as plugging in your blender or vacuum cleaner and mechanical energy can be converted to electrical energy as mentioned in the example of the generator above.
Can an object have both mechanical and kinetic energy?
If an object has kinetic energy, then almost BY DEFINITION it has mechanical energy. "Mechanical energy" is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
Where is mechanical energy used in home?
Most of the devices that we use in society is a kind of mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is the energy of the other. Elevators. Convert electrical energy into mechanical. The car. Converted to mechanical energy is fossil. A bicycle. Muscular body converts energy to mechanical energy.
What converts mechanical energy into mechanical energy?
potiental energy
The conversion of electrical energy in to mechanical energy?
Motors convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. Generators transfer mechanical energy to electrical energy.
What are examples for mechanical heat energy?
As far as I know, there is no such thing as "mechanical heat energy"; there is mechanical energy, and there is heat energy.
What is mechanical energy and it's examples?
a mechanical energy is a kind of energy
What kind of energy does mechanical energy?
Mechanical energy is the combination of kinetic energy and potential energy.
What is spring made of?
Springs are usually made of coiled and hardened steels. Springs can be defined as the mechanical devices that are capable of storing mechanical energy because of their elasticity.
