If you feel behind a fridge, you will feel the warm air. This warmth is from the inside of the fridge as the inside is cooled, and from the pump.

How does a heat mover absorb heat from cold air?
A good example of this process is a refrigerator. Electricity is used to power the refrigerator to keep it cool. The room that the fridge is in is warmer. Normally the warm air from the room should flow into the refrigerator until they are the same temperature. The heat mover, which is the refrigerator in this case, absorbs the heat the cooler air absorbs, and moves it back into the room. This keeps the fridge at a constant temperature.
Describe the process that occurs in a refrigerator?
what happens is that all the heat is taken out of the refrigerator, leaving it cool on the inside and warm on the outside.

Does refrigerator affect temperature of room?
A refrigerator is a "heat pump." That is, it pumps heat out of a cold area (inside) to a warm area (the room). Thus, when working at its best, a refrigerator is a heater. However, the laws of thermodynamics assures us that it will always use more energy than it puts to work, so that extra energy will also heat the room. That is why your air conditioner (another kind of heat pump) is outdoors: if it were indoors, it would heat the room it was trying to cool!
What will happen when refrigerators are opened?
Cold air in the refrigerator escapes and is replaced by warm humid room air. This usually triggers the refrigerator mechanism to cool that air, if you leave the door open too long you can waste lots of electricity.
What is the temperature of the room at the end of 0.7 hour if all the energy remains in the air in the room and none is added by an outside source?
It depends on the size of the room, and what there is inside the room generating heat. Electric lights ? Space heater ? Refrigerator ? TV set ? Warm bodies ?
Why is the refrigerator cold at bottom and warm at top?
The refrigerator is cold at the bottom and warm at the top because warm air rises. Cold air is heavier than warm air and settles toward the bottom of the appliance.
Can you put a warm turkey in fridge after cooking?
No. It is adviseable to cool it at room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator.However if you put a hot turkey in a refrigerator it will use up more energy /cooling in the refrigerator.
Why cant opening the door of the refrigerator will cool the kitchen?
If you have noticed the warm air blowing from behind your refrigerator, that is the heat that was in the air that is inside your refrigerator. If you leave the door open the air around the refrigerator will briefly feel cold, but it will warm back up and the food in the refrigerator will go bad.
Is it possible to cool down a room on a hot summer day by leaving the refrigerator door open?
Assuming I've interpreted your question correctly, the answer is No: A refrigerator is a heat exchanger; it removes heat from the inside and pumps it to the outside -- to plates on the rear of the fridge. If you feel the back of a refrigerator, it will be warm. You may think that if you separated the plates from the "cooling" part of the fridge and put them outside the room, it would cool the room. And in that case, you'd be correct -- that's how air conditioning works.
Why is your refrigerator warm?
because you didn't plug it in, or you broke it.
