What device converts mechanical energy to chemical energy?

An electrolyzer is a device that converts mechanical energy to chemical energy by using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases.


Is a windmill electrical to thermal or electrical to mechanical or chemical to thermal?

Assuming that you're talking about a wind-powered electrical generator (such as a "wind farm"), the energy conversion is from mechanical to electrical. When the wind blows on the blades of the mill it rotates them, creating mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is used to power the electrical generator inside the mill, creating electrical energy out of mechanical energy.


Which is a source of ac current a) a battery b) a generator c) chemical cells wired in series d) chemical cells wired in parallel?

b) a generator. Generators create alternating current (AC) by converting mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.


What are the energy transformations in a coal burning steam generator?

In a coal burning steam generator, the energy transformations involve the chemical energy stored in coal being converted into thermal energy through combustion. The thermal energy produced heats water to create steam, which then drives a turbine to generate mechanical energy. Finally, the turbine's mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy by the generator.


What are the four sources of heat?

The four main sources of heat are the sun, geothermal energy from the Earth's core, friction from mechanical processes, and chemical reactions such as combustion.

Does gasoline create electricity?

Nothing "creates" energy. The chemical energy in gasoline can be converted to electrical energy by burning the gasoline in an internal combustion engine that's connected to a generator.

Why generator has more efficient than motor?

Depending on what you're referring to, you may have this completely backwards. A motor's efficiency is fairly high. A generator's efficiency at converting chemical/kinetic/mechanical energy to electric energy is at best around 50%.
