A5. This Question Is About Energy Transfers.: Dynamo (Generator) Boiler Coal

The document is an exam question about energy transfers in electrical power generation. It includes a Sankey diagram showing energy transformations from coal to electricity in a power station. It asks the student to define energy degradation, identify what a width parameter represents in the diagram, and state the process of energy degradation at three points in the diagram. The responses are blank, indicating it is an incomplete exam question or answer sheet.
