Suppose that a homebuilder installs electric baseboard heat and claims, "It is the cheapest and cleanest way to go." Apply your understanding of the second law of thermodynamics (see Chapter 2, p. 43) and net energy yield (see Figure 15-2, p. 375) to evaluate this claim. Write a response to the homebuilder summarizing your findings.
