Usually, much of the wasted energy takes the form of heat energy. However, part of the energy can also be in other forms, for example sound.

Why is a machine not 100 percent efficient?
Some energy (or power) is usually wasted. It is often possible to take measures to reduce it, but this can't be completely eliminated.Some energy (or power) is usually wasted.

What is energy in the form of heat?
Heat is a form of energy. It can simply call heat energy or thermal energy or even refer to it as heat.Because heat is form of energy, This question is like asking "What is energy in the form of energy". It is all heat is form of energy.Edit: Heat is given off when energy is wasted. Take a light bulb for example. The newer eco-bulbs give off no heat, or very little heat, so they waste little to no energy at all. Normal bulbs, though, give off tons of heat, and are very hot to the touch. Those aren't eco because they waste energy, and give off heat.Another AnswerHeat is defined as energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body. The term, 'thermal energy' is obsolete and has long been replaced by the term, 'internal energy' which describes the sum total of all the energies in a mass.
What must take place in order for work to be done?
Energy in some form must be expended, if the machine is 100 percent efficient the work done in Joules will equal the energy input in Joules, but of course machines are never 100 percent efficient, there are always some losses.
Which form of energy does it take when dynamite explode?
carbon dioxide?
What form of energy conversion will take place when a bulb is lighted up?
Electrical energy is being converted to light energy and heat energy
What does it mean that a form of energy might take more energy to harness than it provides?
It means that we would get less energy out of that source than we put into it, so the net result is wasted energy.

What kind of energy do simple machines take?
force

It means that we would get less energy out of that source than we put into it, so the net result is wasted energy.
How efficient is a normal car engine what percentage of energy is converted into useful energy?
The answer is 20-25% so about ¾ of the chemical energy is wasted, i.e. not turned into kinetic energy of the car. Engine efficiency is limited by the maximum temperature and pressure that a normal cylinder block can take. Diesel engines run at higher temperature/pressure and are more efficient but have to be more massively built. Another form of wasted energy is the water produced by the burning action of the hydrogen in the fuel with oxygen from the air. It comes in the form of steam and the energy of the steam is wasted by being sent out through the exhaust pipe (you can see the water dripping out of the exhaust when the car is cold, because there is time for it to condense in the cold exhaust system).
Why are transformer more efficient than a rotating electric machine?
Transformers inherently do not have frictional losses, but transformers and rotating machines perform completely different functions, so I'm not sure it is fair to compare them. Transformers are used to transform electric energy (the input is electric energy, and the output is electric energy). Rotating machines either take electric energy and convert it to mechanical/kinetic energy, or take kinetic energy and convert it to electric energy.
Plants take in energy in the form of what during photosynthesis?
The plants take in energy by absorbing sunlight.
How do you work out the cost of waste energy?
To figure out the cost of waste energy you take the cost of the energy put into it and subtract the cost of what you got out of it. Whatever the answer is to that is the cost of the wasted energy.
What form of energy takes place in an LED?
A form of energy can't 'take place'. An energy changetakes place, in this case from electrical energy to light.
What form of energy is in heat?

It is all heat is form of energy.Edit: Heat is given off when energy is wasted. Take a light bulb for example. The newer eco-bulbs give off no heat, or very little heat, so they waste little to no energy at all. Normal bulbs, though, give off tons of heat, and are very hot to the touch. Those aren't eco because they waste energy, and give off heat.Another AnswerHeat is defined as energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body.
