Explain the process of how a coal fire power plant works.

coal is burned which is chemical energy, the thermal energy from the fire heats water that causes it to change from liquid to gas.  The gas rises as mechanical energy causing the turbine to turn.  This turbine when turned transfers mechanical energy into electrical energy and is sent out to your homes.
