An example of heat energy converting to mechanical energy is a steam engine. In a steam engine, heat energy from burning fuel is used to boil water and produce steam. The expanding steam pushes against pistons, creating mechanical energy that can be used to power machinery.
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.
No, a toaster is an appliance that transforms electrical energy into heat energy. It does not involve mechanical energy directly in its operation.
A lightbulb turning on is a good example of the transformation of mechanical energy (electricity powering the lightbulb) to heat energy (lightbulb heating up) and light energy (light emitted by the lightbulb).
Examples of mechanical heat energy include frictional heating produced when rubbing hands together, the heat generated when braking a car, and the heat generated from compressing air in a bicycle pump.
Smoke is an example of mechanical energy and heat energy. This is because the internal motion of atoms is called heat energy and mechanical energy is energy associated with motion. Smoke contains atoms moving which is both an example of heat and mechanical energy.

Absolutely a simple example is the engine.

Friction, for example the heating in brake discs and pads when slowing a vehicle
It will still be heat energy, but it can be converted to mechanical energy

Examples of mechanical heat energy include frictional heating produced when rubbing hands together, the heat generated when braking a car, and the heat generated from compressing air in a bicycle pump.
Friction causes mechanical energy to be transformed into heat energy.
An example would be a lightbulb, where electrical energy (mechanical energy in the form of moving electrons) is converted to radiant energy (light). The electrical energy causes the filament in the lightbulb to heat up and emit light energy.
Mechanical energy does not come directly from light and heat. Light and heat are forms of energy, but they do not typically convert into mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is typically associated with the motion or position of an object.
