MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS
1. *Refer to Mr Goh’s October 2008 utility bill, what will the total bill be if the water consumption
is increased to 50.0 m3?
(Hint : When water usage increases, the waterborne fee increases too. Please also do not
forget the water conservation charge and then finally the GST.)
[For example, if water usage increases by 1 cubic m, water fee increases by $1.17,
waterborne fee increases by $0.28, water conservation charge increases by ($1.17X30%) =
$0.35 and GST increases by $1.8X7% = $0.126.]
A $624.98
B $629.51
C $630.88
D $639.90
2. Which of the following usage is the worst absorber of heat transferred via radiation?
A I and II only
B II and III only
C I and III only
D I, II and III
A good conductor
B poor conductor
A conduction only
B convection and radiation
C radiation only
D conduction, convection and radiation
7. *Read the following passage below about air change rate and answer the questions which
follow:-
Air change rate is a measure of how quickly the air in an interior space is replaced by
outside (or conditioned) air by ventilation and infiltration. Air change rate is measured in
appropriate units such as cubic meters per hour divided by the volume of air in the room,
or by the number of times the home's air changes over with outside air. For example, if the
amount of air that enters and exits in one hour equals the total volume of the heated part
of the house, the house is said to undergo one air change per hour.
Air change rate is an indication of the air-tightness of a home, but it is difficult to pin down
because it depends significantly on how the house is used, as well as the wind and
temperature differentials it experiences during the year. Even if the rate were determined
with some precision, which is established with a blower-door test, there is no assurance
that value would apply under other conditions. For this reason, rough estimates are
generally used when referring to a home's air tightness.
The US national average of air change rates, for existing homes, is between one and two
per hour, and is dropping with tighter building practices and more stringent building codes.
Standard homes built today usually have air change rates from 0.5 to 1.0. Extremely tight
new construction can achieve air change rates of 0.35 or less. Most homes with such low
air change rates have some form of mechanical ventilation to bring in fresh outside air and
exchange heat between the two air streams.
To get an idea of what your home's air change rate might be, consider that a tight, well
sealed newly constructed home usually achieves 0.6 air changes per hour or less. A
reasonably tight, well constructed older home typically has an air change rate of about 1
per hour. A somewhat loose older home with no storm windows and caulk missing in
spots has an air change rate of about 2. A fairly loose, drafty house with no caulk or
weatherstripping and entrances used might have an air change rate as high as 4, and a
very drafty, dilapidated house might have an air change rate of as high as 8.
Using the US as a standard, how long would you expect all the air in Mr Goh’s newly renovated
house to be exchanged with fresh air?
A force
B weight
C mass
D density
9. You see an air-conditioner drips water, where does the water come from?
10. *Why does an air-conditioner become less efficient (not cold) when it is dirty?
11. *Why are the thermometers in our metrological station placed under shades?
12. Singapore is a place with plenty of sunlight, what do you think is the reason that solar
power/cells are still not widely used in Singapore?
A I only
B I and II only
C II and III only
D I, II and III
13. On which dates of a year is/are the sun exactly above the equator?
I 1 January
II 21 March
III 22 June
IV 21 October
V 22 December
VI 25 December
A 10 hours
B 11 hours
C 12 hours
D 13 hours
15. *What is the cost of installing solar panels to generate enough electricity for Mr Goh’s
house in October 2008, given the following information.
Power received from Sun per day per piece of solar panel = 1000 W
Power loss when converting solar energy to electrical energy = 30%
Cost of each piece of solar panel (including installation cost) = $45
A $67.50
B $1,500
C $5,625
D $18,750
16. *Using the information on question 3, what is the area needed for the solar panels, given
that each solar panel is 2 m long by 1 m wide?
A 734 m2
B 834 m2
C 934 m2
D 1034 m2
17. The table below shows the inhaled and exhaled air of human beings, which one is correct?
I to provide shade
II to protect soil
III to attract precipitation
IV to give out oxygen
A I and II only
B II and III only
C III and IV only
D I, II, III and IV only
A higher than cost of getting water from our local catchment area
B higher than distilling pure water from seawater
C lower than buying raw water from Malaysia
D higher than buying mineral water from Indonesia

Speaker Notes on slide 1
TO THE TRAINER This PowerPoint presentation can be used to train people about the basics of
refrigeration and air condonditioning. The information on the slides is the minimum information that
should be explained. The trainer notes for each slide provide more detailed information, but it is up to the
trainer to decide if and how much of this information is presented also. Additional materials that can be
used for the training session are available on www.energyefficiencyasia.org under “Energy Equipment”
and include: Textbook chapter on this energy equipment that forms the basis of this PowerPoint
presentation but has more detailed information Quiz – ten multiple choice questions that trainees can
answer after the training session Option checklist – a list of the most important options to improve energy
efficiency of this equipment

o Two advantages
o Lot of heat can be removed (lot of thermal energy to change liquid to vapour)
o Heat transfer rate remains high (temperature of working fluid much lower than what is being cooled)
