Energy can be conserved by ________________.
A) repealing the Law of Entropy
B) cogeneration in automobiles, especially in SUVs
C) replacing mass transit with more and larger roads for cars and trucks
D) replacing compact florescent with tungsten bulbs
E) cogeneration in power plants, fuel efficient transportation, reengineered appliances

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cogeneration in power plants, fuel efficient transportation, and reengineered appliances all lead to the conservation of energy by reducing the amount of energy wasted during production, transportation, and use. Repealing the Law of Entropy is not possible as it is a fundamental law of thermodynamics. Increasing the number of cars on the road by replacing mass transit with more and larger roads for cars and trucks would actually increase energy consumption. Using tungsten bulbs instead of compact fluorescent bulbs would also increase energy consumption as they are less efficient in converting electrical energy to light.
