Does car AC consume extra gas?
Of course it doesl. The airconditioning requires running a compressor and a circulation fan. The compressor usually is run off a belt from the engine shaft and takes energy from the motor to run, which uses extra fuel for the extra load. The fan usually runs on electrical power, which is also generaRead more
Of course it doesl. The airconditioning requires running a compressor and a circulation fan. The compressor usually is run off a belt from the engine shaft and takes energy from the motor to run, which uses extra fuel for the extra load. The fan usually runs on electrical power, which is also generated by the motor through the generator. This represents an additional load as well, but usually quite a bit less than the compressor. Some studies have been done to check whether running with the windows down and the AC off is really more efficient tha running the AC. That is because the windows open creates an additional air drag related to speed as the airflow is spoilt. This in turn makes more engine load.

I do believe in prophesy, but i see it more as informed predictions. Science uses Predictions as a means of verifying its tenets. As an example, the law of gravity allows the prediction of the time it take for a mass to fall a certain distance. By demonstrating this prediction Science certifies the accuracy of its theory on gravity. Predictions in the Bible are verifying that the Bible writers had Sociological Theorues that premitted these predictions.
