Yes,the mechanical energy of steam can turn the shaft of a generator thru the steam turbine in which the steam acts on its blade to produce rotational motion to transform mechanical energy. Yes, the mechanical energy of steam can turn the shaft of a generator thru steam turbine as the driver, because the steam will acts on the tubine blade to produce rotational motion to transform mechanical energy and elctrical energy as well.

How does a generator convert mechanical energy into electrical energy?
An electric generator is a device used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, Which is used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. The generator is based on the principle of "electromagnetic induction" discovered in 1831 by Michael Faraday, a British scientist. Faraday discovered that if an electric conductor, like a copper wire, is moved through a magnetic field, electric current will flow (be induced) in the conductor. So the mechanical energy of the moving wire is converted into the electric energy of the current that flows in the wire.
What is the output of a bicycle generator?
The output of a bicycle generator is electricity, which is generated by pedaling the bicycle to power a generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
How does a generator differ from electric motor?
A dynamo generator and an electric motor are similar in construction, but work in opposite ways to one another, and have reciprocal purposes. Both contain a central shaft with affixed magnet(s) surrounded by a series of wound coils enclosed by an outer casing having two electrical leads, one live and one neutral. In a dynamo, an outside mechanical force such as the rotation of a cyclist's wheel spins the central shaft and magnets around. The magnetic force pushes and pulls electrons in the outer coils which creates an electric potential between the leads. In a motor, an electric current is fed to the leads which pushes and pulls electrons through the coils. The coils become negatively charged then positively charged, cycling back and forth to the opposing and attracting magnets. This drives the shaft in a circle to power an external mechanical device.
