Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

A passive solar system captures heat energy and stores it in a thermal mass. An active solar system heats water or air in a collector and then pumps it through a system to a tank, where it provides water for direct use and space heating. Solar systems are not in widespread use due to limitations (periods of cloudiness and night), political decision making, and more.
