A wire moving in a magnetic fields creates electric current.

Moving a coil of wire into a magnetic field creates a voltage across the ends of the coil. The voltage equals the number of turns times the rate of change of magnetic flux.

If a resistor is placed across the coil and it is moved into the field again, current flows in the resistor, creating energy in the form of heat. At the same time a force will be needed to push the coil into the field, thus providing the mechanical energy for this process.

Electrical engineers have to understand how to make the process as efficient as possible.

Does a electric motor convert chemical energy to mechanical energy?

No, an electric motor does not convert chemical energy to mechanical energy. Electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy by using electromagnetic fields to create motion.


What is the difference between energy conversion that takes place in an electric motor with the conversion that takes place in a generator?

In an electric motor, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy to produce motion. In a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy by rotating a coil within a magnetic field. Essentially, electric motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.


Why electricfan is an mechanical energy?

An electric fan is not "an mechanical energy". An electric fan converts electrical energy into mechanical energy (the movement of the fan blades, and hence, the movement of the air).
