A20 watt light bulb is left burning inside a refrigerator operating on a reverse carnot cycle. if the refrigerator also draws 20 watts of electrical power to operate its condenser, can it cool its interior below room temperature while the bulb is on? explain why or why not

Explanation:

Given that,

Power drawn by the refrigerator = 20 watt

Power of burning light inside = 20 watt

Room temperature = 27°C

We need to calculate the temperature

Using formula of coefficient of refrigerator

Put the value into the formula

is less than

Therefore, refrigerator cools its interior below room temperature while the bulb is on.

Hence, This is the required solution.

less than one you can't create energy

molecules are free to separate from each other and will take on the shape of the container. molecules move completely at random and high speeds. they vibrate in a fixed position and do not move around much. molecules expand to the edge of their container.
