Key Stage 4

Meaning

Wasted energy is the energy transferred to an unwanted store.

About Wasted Energy

Wasted energy is usually transferred to the thermal energy store of an object or the surroundings.
The more wasted energy during an energy transfer the less efficient the device.
Wasted Energy = (Total Energy transferred) - (Useful Energy)
