A hair drier can use between 400 watts and 1500 watts while it is on. This is considered a fairly intensive use of electricity. However, for the most part people only spend a few minutes blow drying their hair so it doesn't add up to much.

∙ 12y agoA hair-dryer doesn't produce energy. It consumes electrical energy, and uses it
first to raise the temperature of some air, and then to impart kinetic energy to
the heated air and blow it out the end of the hair dryer.
The rate at which the hair dryer uses electrical energy is usually marked prominently on
the appliance ... typically anywhere from a few hundred watts to 1200 or 1300 watts.

What types of energy does a hairdryer use?
The hairdryer usually use the electrical energy. When heated, the hairdryer will convert electrical energy to heat energy which can then be used for hair drying.
Why must the total energy output of the hairdryer always equal the total energy input to the hairdryer?
That doesn't just applies to hairdriers, it's a more general law - conservation of energy. Energy can't be created nor destroyed; you can't create energy out of nowhere, but you can't destroy it either.
What types of energy comes out of a hairdryer?
thermal, sound and something else sorry
What is the waste energy from a hairdryer?
Useful - heat energy of air flowing past the heater filament and kinetic energy of air driven by fan

Convection

Why is it important for the cells to produce energy in people and NOT plants?
Many plant cells produce energy through Photosynthesis.
How energy is transformed from 1 kind to another kind in hairdryer?
Electrical energy is transformed into heat energy. But that heat has to passed to the hair. So a fan operates in which electrical energy is changed into mechanical energy.
