Best Answer

chemical energy -> kinetic energy

Basically the fat (energy) stored by the human is used to generate the fanning movement.

Why don't we convert mechanical energy of fan into electrical energy using dynamo?

A fan needs energy to work. Suppose we use a dynamo, driven by the fan. The output of the dynamo is supposed to drive the fan. In this loop, some energy leaks away, into moving air not captured by the arrangement set up to drive the dynamo. More energy is lost in the working of the fan, and of the dynamo, appearing as heat and wear. If we provide this system with 100 joules to start it off, soon all that energy will have leaked away and pretty quickly the thing will stop working. On the other hand, if your fan is a windmill driven by external sources (wind), then the wind energy can be converted to useful energy. But not to drive the windmill.


How do you use an electrical fan safely?

You can use it safely by not puting your hand in the blades when it is turned on.


Is the movement of air from a fan kinetic energy?

If the air is moving, then it has kinetic energy. If the fan is running, then the blade has kinetic energy. Maybe that's where the moving air got its kinetic energy from. If the dog is also walking through the room, then the dog has kinetic energy too, but he probably didn't get his kinetic energy from the fan or the air. On the other hand, a piece of tissue floating through the room could very well have gotten its kinetic energy from the fan, but that kinetic energy had to be carried from the fan to the tissue by the moving air.
