You lose energy when you collide with the surface in sound and heat.

It is also that when you jump on the floor, in order to keep you from going through the floor, the floor needs to put a force that will say 'Hey you can't go through me' that's why we build houses and supports with extra strength to hold us, and all the forces we exert on them.

hope this helps
