    yes an electric motor has an efficiency of around 90%(thats what my engeneering teacher told us)(google tells me 64%) means that is the percentage of how much energy is converted to work the rest of that is emmited as heat. a good rule of thumb is everywere where you have mechanikal work you have frction and friction means heat
