Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.
Explanation:
1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.
2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.
3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.
4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.
Answer:
A

All of the other answers don't make much sense
Answer:
As you may know, each element has a "fixed" number of protons and electrons.
These electrons live in elliptical orbits around the nucleus, called valence levels or energy levels.
We know that as further away are the orbits from the nucleus, the more energy has the electrons in it. (And those energies are fixed)
Now, when an electron jumps from a level to another, there is also a jump in energy, and that jump depends only on the levels, then the jump in energy is fixed.
Particularly, when an electron jumps from a more energetic level to a less energetic one, that change in energy must be compensated in some way, and that way is by radiating a photon whose energy is exactly the same as the energy of the jump.
And the energy of a photon is related to the wavelength of the photon, then we can conclude that for a given element, the possible jumps of energy levels are known, meaning that the possible "jumps in energy" are known, which means that the wavelengths of the radiated photons also are known. Then by looking at the colors of the bands (whose depend on the wavelength of the radiated photons) we can know almost exactly what elements are radiating them.
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.
