LOTS !!! ;-)
Mostly because French was a major influence in the development of the English language, and also because in the past century, American advances in technology etc. have resulted in lots of new terminology being adopted directly from English to French.
Here are a few off the top of my head: concert, public, rose, instrument, air, orange, nation, voyage
Then there are those that are very similar but not identical: musique, chocolat, lettre, danse
And of course there are the false cognates: lecture(=reading), pain (=bread), coin (=corner), chair (=flesh)
Hope this helps!
