A 20 watt light bulb is left burning inside a refrigerator operating on a reverse Carnot cycle. If the refrigerator also draws 2

0 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

COR_{R}=\dfrac{Q_{c}}{W}

\dfrac{Q_{c}}{W}=\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{20}{20}=\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}

\dfrac{T_{c}}{T_{H}-T_{c}}=1

T_{h}=2T_{c}

T_{c}=\dfrac{T_{h}}{2}

T_{c}=\dfrac{27+273}{2}

T_{c}=150\ K

T_{c} is less than T_{h}

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

Hence, This is the required solution.

if in series one lightbulb burns out the rest are unable to turn on.

In parallel a single light bulb burns out any other light bulbs are able to work.
