Why does an air conditioner must cycle on and off to keep the room cooled to a preset temperature?

Seriously? Cold air blows out of the air conditioner when it's on, reducing the temperature of the room. When the temperature in the room reaches some preset value, the air conditioner shuts off to prevent the temperature from dropping any lower. Once the air conditioner is shut off, heat sources within the room including people, appliances, and heat entering through walls and windows causes the temperature in the room to increase. When this happens the air conditioner kicks on again to bring the temperature back down. It ain't rocket science.

Can you keep your windows open while the air conditioner is running?

You can keep your windows open with the air conditioner running, but by doing so, you are letting the hot air in, the cold air out, wasting electricity, and causing your electric bill to be higher.

In a car, it is recommended to leave the windows open for a few minutes for the hot air to escape...then close the windows and enjoy.
