A television is a common electrical appliance, what energy does it transfer electrical energy into?

Light and sound energy.

7 of 10

How do many electrical appliances transfer energy and what is the downfall of this?

By heating, although this may be a useful transfer for example in a kettle but energy is often wasted, therefore appliances should be designed to waste as little energy as possible.
