Because all the electrical energy supplied to the heater is emitted as heat. There is no other way for the energy to escape.

500kw
Most electric motors perform from 50 percent to 100 percent of their rated load. Most appliances have a maximum efficiency load at 75 percent, which may drop considerably to about less than 50 percent depending on the individual motor.
A bit north of 50,000btu/hr
That is 50,000 BTU per hour.
The top rated water heater would depend on the type required. Gas powered, Electric powered, on-demand, solar, tankless...there are many options these days.
To convert the output of an electric heater from kilowatts to BTU per hour, you can use the conversion factor where 1 kilowatt is approximately equal to 3,412 BTU/hour. Therefore, a 15-kilowatt electric heater would produce about 51,180 BTU/hour (15 kW × 3,412 BTU/kW).
Yes if it is run at a lower votage than it is designed for.
Some of the best rated brands of electric stove heaters include the Dimplex Electric Flame stove, the Merlin Electric Heater Fireplace and the Bionare fireplace Heater stove.
A 5kw heater draws just that, 5kw or 5000 w. If you have that switched on high, well I do not know what your supplier charges per kw hour, I am glad its not me paying.
The amperage of an electric heater depends on its power rating in watts and the voltage it operates on. To determine the amperage, divide the wattage by the voltage (Amperes = Watts / Volts). For example, a 1500 watt electric heater running on 120 volts would use 12.5 amperes (1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 A).
An electric kettle, rated at 1.5 kW, heats 1.1 kg of water from 14°C to 99°C in 4 min 45 s. Determine the efficiency of this application of an energy
