I would say, heat engine on earth would waste the most energy since it is always limited by thermodynamic efficiency to have some loss. In general, lower the temperature difference will resulted to lower the efficiency, a simple steam engine for a train would be of lower efficiency than a internal combustion engine and lower than complex high pressure steam turbine and is probably the lowest engine efficiency in commercial scale.

What is the wasted energy from a rocket?
The wasted energy in a car is electrical energy
When gasoline in a engine some of the chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy but most of the energy is lost in the form of what?
Heat
Does creating nuclear energy produce large amounts of radioactive wastes?
True
Major problems associated with the production of nuclear energy?
air pollution and hazardous wastes
What is the most common energy conversion?
One of the most common energy conversions involves the changing of potential energy to kinetic energy or kinetic energy to potential energy.Answer:Eventually all energy is transformed into heat.
Why does the engine not release all of the chemical energy as mechanical energy?
Because of the behavior of thermodynamics (entropy), it wastes some of the energy in the form of heat.
When is friction unuseful?
When it wastes energy you would rather keep - which is quite often.When it wastes energy you would rather keep - which is quite often.When it wastes energy you would rather keep - which is quite often.When it wastes energy you would rather keep - which is quite often.
Why is important to reduce friction in a car engine?
Friction has two unpleasant effects: 1) it increases wear and tear, 2) it wastes energy.

Renewable energy sources currently being used considered to be unable to meet your total energy needs?
One of the most commonly used renewable energy is the solar energy. Others include windmill energy and energy from animal wastes.
What does the term efficient mean?
if you mean in terms of energy then it refers to a device that transfers more useful energy than it wastes if you mean in terms of energy then it refers to a device that transfers more useful energy than it wastes
Is E waste legal?
