If a refrigerator’s door is kept open, will the room becomes cool or hot? Explain.
Correct option is B) A refrigerator is a heat engine it extracts heat from low temperature reservoir and transfer it to high temperature. If a refrigerator’s door is kept open, then room will become hot, because then refrigerator exhaust more heat into the room than earlier. In this way, temperature of the room increases and room becomes hot. No refrigerator is efficient. Thus it exhaust more heat into the room than it extract from it. Thus, a room cannot be cooled by keeping the door of a refrigerator open.
