Why a room can be warmed by leaving open the door of an oven but cannot be cooled by leaving open the door of a kitchen refrigerator?
the second law of thermodynamics proves that heat always flows from hot to cold. It is hard to give good every day examples, since when you open the refrigerator door you feel cold but actually the room is warming the fridge.
Why is it important that the walls and door of a microwave oven reflect the microwave radiation?
reflects
Is it safe to use the microwave oven while wearing magnetic bracelets?
Yes, as long as the door on the appliance is closed and undamaged.
How does energy efficiency of conventional oven compare to microwave oven?
compare microwave oven to conventional oven
What energy powers a microwave?
A microwave oven uses the 120 V AC coming out of your kitchen receptacle (in the United States) and by means of a transformer and rectifier converted to 7000 V DC which is then used to energize the magnetron that creates the microwave energy.

Should a smoke alarm positioned in hallway be activated when the oven door is opened in the kitchen distance 3 to 4 meters?
It depends on the position of the oven, oven door, kitchen door and shape of house.
When a kitchen oven cools does the same total amount of heat go into the room with the door open as with it closed?
Yes - it just does so much more slowly with the door closed.
What are some kitchen appliances that are poor heat conductors?
-- the refrigerator door -- the oven door
Why can't you warm the kitchen by leaving the oven door open?
First of all it will waste a tremendous amount of electricity. The heating elements will probably over heat trying to heat a room rather than a small space like the inside of the oven and an oven get much hotter than a space heater so you could set something on fire.
Where does heat go when you open the oven door?
Heat flows from hot to cold so the kitchen will warm up a bit from natural convection and radiation. Because the kitchen is so much larger the temperature will disperse quickly.
Do you keep the oven door open when you broil?
Yes, slightly.
Does an electronic oven have an auto turn off and unlock the door after it has finished cleaning?
I have had both an 'electronic' electric oven, and a 'manual' electric oven, with the cleaning feature. Both ovens lock the oven door shut when that feature was activated, and the locking mechanism did not unlock until it was safe to open the door once again.
What thermodynamic law proves that the same amount of heat transfers from a cooling oven to the room with the door open or closed?
That would be a direct result of the first law of Thermodynamics. If you consider the kitchen to be a closed system, the total energy remains the same whether the oven is open or closed while it cools down. It just takes longer for the heat to move through the walls of the oven when the door is closed, but the end result is still to move the same amount of energy out of the oven until thermal equilibrium is reached between the oven and the room.
Fridgidaire gas range the oven door spring had slipped and the door will not close entirely need help thanks?
I tried to do a speed clean on my frigidaire Gas range oven. The clean cycle did not work and now the oven door won't open. Please tell me how to open it Thanks
Can food bake if the oven is slightly open?
Ovens work because heat is kept confined to a small area. If the oven door is left open, it disrupts the way an oven works. An open oven door will prevent food from being baked evenly. If a recipe calls for say, 375 degrees for 2 hours, the oven temperature will never reach 375 degrees OR stay consistently at 375 degrees for the duration of baking. Plus, you will waste considerable energy, whether the oven is gas or electric. You should repair the oven door, or buy a new stove/oven, and tell others to not keep opening the oven door to 'check' food.
How do you take the oven door off?
open slightly then lift it off the hinges
