A household refrigerator is .maintained at a
temperature of 2°C. Every time the door is
opened, warm material is placed inside
introducing an average of 420 kJ, but making
only a small change in the temperature of the
refrigerator. The door is opened 20 times a
day and the refrigerator operates at 15% of the
Ideal COP. The cost of the work is 4 rupees
per kWh. What is the monthly bill for this
refrigerator? The atmosphere is at 30°C.
Air that initially occupies 0.140 m3 at a gauge pressure of 103.0 kPa is expanded isothermally to a pressure of 101.3 kPa and then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches its initial volume. Compute the work done by the air. (Gauge pressure is the difference between the actual pressure and atmospheric pressure.)
100 mL of water at 20.0 °C is placed in the freezer compartment of a refrigerator with a coefficient of performance of 3.00. How much heat energy is exhausted into the room as the water is changed to ice at
-15.0 °C?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
