Connect it to a power strip. Powering half of its outlets should be sufficient!

If it takes 3 pins to run a 3 kW device, then it clearly only requires 2 pins to run a 2 kW device, and 1 pin to run a 1 kW device. I don't see the problem.
Fundamentally, it is conservation of energy that precludes plugging a three terminal device into a two terminal outlet.

Was that test in 1997?
Not even the question makes sense. Cancer is not a single disease, it's a large range of diseases. Some are well curable, some are not.
This question can be found in various solution databases, and none of them seem to care that the question and the supposed answer make no sense.

There are always some questions in this exam which technically don't makes sense but are Just taken from book lines.
