Vedclass · Answer

(N/A) refrigerator is a heat pump that extracts heat from a cold reservoir and rejects it into a hot reservoir by performing external work.
Schematic representation:
$1$. $T_H$ (Hot reservoir/Surroundings)
$2$. $Q_H$ (Heat rejected to surroundings)
$3$. $W$ (Work done by the compressor)
$4$. $T_L$ (Cold reservoir/Inside the refrigerator)
$5$. $Q_L$ (Heat extracted from the cold reservoir)
The cycle is represented as:
$Q_L + W = Q_H$
Diagram description:
- $A$ box labeled $T_L$ (Cold reservoir) releases $Q_L$ energy to the system.
- The system performs work $W$ on the refrigerant.
- The system releases $Q_H$ energy to the box labeled $T_H$ (Hot reservoir),where $T_H > T_L$.

If a refrigerator's door is kept open,will the room become cool or hot? Explain.

In a cold storage,ice melts at the rate of $2 \ kg$ per hour when the external temperature is $20^{\circ} C$. The minimum power output of the motor used to drive the refrigerator which just prevents the ice from melting is (latent heat of fusion of ice $= 80 \ cal \ g^{-1}$) (in $W$)

The power of a refrigerator that can make $15 \ kg$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$ from water at $30^{\circ}C$ in one hour is: (in $W$)

$A$ Carnot engine,having an efficiency of $\eta = 1/10$ as a heat engine,is used as a refrigerator. If the work done on the system is $10 \ J$,the amount of energy absorbed from the reservoir at a lower temperature is ....... $J$.
