Probably about 25 percent of the heat of combustion goes up the stack
A boiling kettle is useful for preparing hot water for drinks or cooking. However, leaving a kettle boiling for an extended period would waste energy unnecessarily. It is best to boil only as much water as needed to be energy-efficient.
Turning waste in to useful things is good in two ways. Firstly, the undesired "waste" will be gone, and you wont have to worry about what to do with it. Secondly Also if your talking about garbage, metals take a great deal of energy to dig out from the ground, and much more to remove from the ore dug up. so recycling removes these energy costs (and pollution associated) from our worry. Other materials like glass require 50 percent less energy to re-melt than fuse origionally SO......
The useful energy produced by the motor can be found by multiplying the input energy by the efficiency. Therefore, 250 J * 0.4 = 100 J of useful energy produced by the motor.

Because their isn't much water in the desert.

None. I enjoy every last Watt of it.
That would depend on if the steam is superheated dry steam or not and if superheated dry steam its temperature. It should be possible to google "boiler equations" or "boiler design" to get details.
The rate at which electrical energy is converted into other forms of energy depends on the efficiency of the system or device in use. Efficiency is a measure of how much of the electrical energy is successfully converted into useful energy, such as mechanical, light, or heat energy. Higher efficiency systems will convert more electrical energy into the desired form with less waste.
boiler efficiency is how much water is converting to steam.
Waste implies the use is unnecessary, which is an arbitrary decision, making your question unanswerable.
