Central of course because it is larger.
Yes. The compressor in the AC takes a great deal of power.
I believe it is more beneficial to invest in a central package unit. The wattage it takes to run multiple window units is most likely double the cost of running a central unit.
Running the air conditioner for an hour typically consumes more electricity than leaving the lights on all day.
Hard to believe there are people so ignorant that this question was even asked! A "low profile" air conditioner is one that takes up a smaller amount of window space, as compared with "traditional" air conditioners. It is best on smaller windows, or where you want to maximize the view out of a regular window. Do a search of "LG GL6000ER" for an example.
The path electricity takes is called a circuit.

If it cycles off and on too often, it may not provide enough dehumidification. It takes awhile for the evaporator coils inside to get cool, which is when they provide adequate dehumidification.
Using the AC takes power from the engine and it does lower the mpg.
Electricity takes the path of least resistance. When the electricity travels outside of the circuit, rather than through it, it is called a short circuit.
Yes, it is better to buy a ductless air conditioner. However, it is more of a matter of opinion on which to choose. The ductless air conditioner is better, aesthetically. It's more modern and fits into a normal home. A normal air conditioner takes up a window space, which ruins a beautiful view. However, ductless AC systems are harder to repair, however, they are still pretty durable.
Easy installation, takes up little space because it requires no duct work, they are affordable generally around 1,000 where central units cost 5 to 6,000 and many of them offer heat features.
