Question 364

Electrical energy can be obtained from burning coal in a thermal power station. In which order is the energy transferred through the components of the power station?

A

coal→generator→boiler and furnace→turbines\text{coal} \rightarrow \text{generator} \rightarrow \text{boiler and furnace} \rightarrow \text{turbines}coal→generator→boiler and furnace→turbines

B

coal→generator→turbines→boiler and furnace\text{coal} \rightarrow \text{generator} \rightarrow \text{turbines} \rightarrow \text{boiler and furnace}coal→generator→turbines→boiler and furnace

C
