Question:

Which device is capable of transforming mechanical energy into electrical energy? * please help?

a motor, a generator, a battery, or a fuse?

Answer:

a generator.
Generator. Uses fuel that burns and create motion of a machine called a Prime Mover. The Prime Mover then drives a coil inside a generator.The coil cuts through Magnetic lines of forces around another coil.This induces a voltage on the coil as it rotates on the shaft of the prime mover. This voltage forms the electrical energy that is taken from the generator. This all depends on the size generator. may be too much for you based on the question, but hope it works!
Generator: mechanical to electrical Motor: electrical to mechanical Battery: chemical to electrical Fuse: electrical to thermal, so that it melts to protect other components
