What transfer thermal energy from inside a room to outside which is similar to a refrigerator?
air conditioner
How do heat engines use thermal energy and how do refrigerators keep things cold?
Heat engines transform thermal energy to mechanical energy. A refrigerator is a device that transfers thermal energy from inside the refrigerator to the room outside.
What is the delay in transfer of thermal energy from outside to inside is called?
thermal lag
How does cavity wall insulation reduce energy transfer?
Cavity wall insulation is the addition of an insulating material between two layers of wall on the outside of a building. It reduces energy transfer by preventing heat (from the inside or the outside) from travelling through the wall to surrounding air.
Does a fridge use more energy in a cold room?
Probably not. If a refrigerator were in a room so cold that the outside temperature caused the refrigerator to be very cold inside, the thermostat in the refrigerator might not ever cause the device to actually use any energy. For most normal purposes, the refrigerator will be better off in a cooler room simply because the outside atmosphere will not be constantly warming up the fridge from the outside. Think about how much more you need the air conditioning on to keep a room at 70 degrees on a hot day than on a cold one.
What transfer thermal energy from inside a room to outside which is similar to a refrigerator?
air conditioner
A device that uses an outside energy source to transfer thermal energy from a cool area to a warm area is called a?
A device that transfers thermal energy from a cool region to a warm region is called a Heat Pump. Refrigerators are an example of this. So are many air conditioning units.
Why is a refrigerator called a thermal energy mover On what scientific principles does it work?
It removes thermal energy on what ever you place on the refrigerator. The first principle is transfer of heat, the second is solidification or vapourization.
Which area of technology might be associated with this item a refrigerator?
waves
What provides the outside source of energy for the earth?
The sun
How do heat engines use thermal energy and how do refrigerators keep things cold?
Heat engines transform thermal energy to mechanical energy. A refrigerator is a device that transfers thermal energy from inside the refrigerator to the room outside.
What is the delay in transfer of thermal energy from outside to inside is called?
thermal lag
How does insulation keep a building warm?
By slowing the transfer of energy from inside to outside.
How does cavity wall insulation reduce energy transfer?
Cavity wall insulation is the addition of an insulating material between two layers of wall on the outside of a building. It reduces energy transfer by preventing heat (from the inside or the outside) from travelling through the wall to surrounding air.
Is the transfer of energy called?
The transfer of energy is called Energy Transfer

Do refrigerator magnets increase the energy consumption of a refrigerator due to induction?
No. A refrigerator magnet does not have a strong enough magnet field to affect your motor. Also the motor is mounted either at the top of bottom of your fridge. Far enough away from the outside of the door.
