Average Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

                             =   15 m/s - 24 m/s  =  -9 m/s

Acceleration =  (-9 m/s) / (12 sec) =  - 0.75 m/s² .

A refrigerator removes 55.0 kcal of heat from the freezer and releases 73.5 kcal through the condenser on the back.How much work
sammy [17]

Here refrigerator removes 55 kcal heat from freezer

Refrigerator releases 73.5 kcal heat to surrounding

So here we can use energy conservation principle by II Law of thermodynamics

the law says that

Q_1 = Q_2 + W

here we know that

Q_1 = heat released to the surrounding

Q_2 = heat absorbed from freezer

W = work done by the compressor

now using above equation we can write

73.5 = 55 + W

W = 73.5 - 55

W = 18.5 kcal

So here compressor has to do 18.5 k cal work on it
