It just goes into the atmosphere surrounding the appliance. For example feel the air blowing out of a vacuum cleaner, it is warmer than the room temperature. This is energy which has been absorbed by the motor but appears as waste heat rather than the main function of the motor which is to provide an air flow through the machine.

In the case of a heater, a heat pump would be much more efficient - one unit of electrical energy can pump perhaps 5 or 6 units of heat energy from the outside to the inside of a house - resulting in an apparent efficiency of 500% or 600%! In contrast, the heater only gets an efficiency of about 100%. In either case, whether a heater or a heat pump is used, once the heat dissipates, it can't be recovered.

How much energy is wasted for every 1000 megajoule?
It depends on the efficiency of the appliance. If an electric motor has an efficiency of 0.7, then for every 1000 megajoules, 30 megajoules will be wasted as useless heat or sound or other useless energy form.
What is an apparatus that converts electric energy into kinetic energy?
An electric motor does that.
What is the difference between energy conversion that takes place in an electric motor with the conversion that takes place in a generator?
An electric motor converts electric energy to mechanical energy while a generator converts mechanical energy to electric energy.
Where does the escalator get its energy?
Electric motor.
What type of energy is formed when a washing machine is used?
The motor is electric, the hot water is typically heated by gas or electric.
Wasted energy produced by motor bike?
Noise and heat is wasted energy from motorcycles.
What is the function of an electric motor in terms of electric power and motor?
The electric motor changes electric energy into mechanical energy.
