yeah i think i spelled aldernater wrong, but that's not the point.
if the AC runs from the electricity that the aldernator makes, then why does running AC use more gas? the aldernator and belt all run at the same speed, it doesn't slow down or anything, and the extra electricity that is made from the aldernator is sent to the AC unit. so why would running the AC use more gas? the aldernator doesn't spin faster to generate more electricity. so just why would running AC use more gas? wouldn't it just use the same amount?
sorry, i've just been stuck on the question for days and i can't find my answer anywhere! i asked my dad, and he just kept going in circles and just wouldn't give a straight answer (lol i can tell he doesn't know! but he works on cars quite a bit and i would think it's something he'd know). but anyway i hope you guys can help me out with this. thanks!
11 points to best answer!
