What is the useful energy of a TV?
Light and sound
8 of 14
What is the waste form of energy for a TV?
heat
9 of 14
How is the TV designed to let out waste energy easily?
It has heat vents on the top of the set which increse the surface area to maximise energy transfer and prevent the TV from overheating
