6. A building needs 30 [MWh] electricity annually for appliances, and its annual cooling demand is 40 [MWh]. The building is connected to a cooling grid (neglect the losses in the grid), where the cold is produced by an absorption cooling machine using waste heat from the power plant delivering the electricity to the building. What is the amount of primary energy used annually by the building? The power plant is combustion engine based and has an electrical efficiency of 0.35, a thermal efficiency of 0.55 and the absorption cooling machine has a SEER of 0.9. (multiple choice, one answer)

A. In the morning, the student plugs in a computer (240 W) to study physics, a microwave (800 W) to make breakfast, and a hair dryer (1200 W) to dry the hair. What is the overall current in this student's room, in Ampere? B. A circuit in a student’s room has a 15 A circuit breaker. In the morning, the student plugs in a computer (240 W) to study physics, a microwave (800 W) to make breakfast, and a hair dryer (1200 W) to dry the hair. Will this be enough to trip the circuit breaker? not enough information no, because the overall current is more than 15 A no, because the overall current is less than 15 A yes, because the overall current is less than 15 A yes, because the overall current is more than 15 A

Which of the following statement is false regarding the emf? O a. The battery or other emf source always produces the same amount of current regardless of the kind of component/s in the circuit. O b. For a real source of emf, the terminal voltage equals the emf only if no current is flowing through the source. O c. The source of emf supplies a constant potential difference independent of the current in series with an internal resistance. O d. The increase in internal resistance may decrease the terminal voltage. O e. The battery may overheat due to the increased power dissipated by the internal resistance.
