Such sound would typically be absorbed after a time. When this happens, most of the energy will be converted to heat energy.

In addition to above, the sound itself is kinetic energy which in moving ahead faces resistance or the friction of the medium that leads to convert sound energy into heat energy. Here, optical and thermodynamic phenomenon seems interlinked.

Most of it gets lost as friction.


Where does the lost energy go?

energy is never lost. It is either converted from one form of energy to another (from heat to mechanical, from mechanical to electric, from electric to heat).


When a generator is running and if no electrical load is attached to it where do the electrical energy generated go to?

hi, when generator is running on no load,it is having its own load because of it produce some voltage drop,result electric energy is generated.
