Several things. It's like an elevator. It has it's ups and downs. The humidity inside will go way up. The temperature of the food will go way down and your electric bill will go way up. The food inside that needs to be kept cold will spoil quicker.
Yes. The refrigerator is set to hold a certain temperature, that's probably cooler than the environment where the fridge is sest. When you open the door, the cold air will leak out, so the fridge will start working to get the temperature down again. If you were to shut the door the temperature inside would drop rather quickly, and the fridge could stop working for awhile. But as long as the door is open, the temperature will remain high and the fridge will keep working. And as long as it's working it will be using up electric energy.
The propane tank in a 1982 Vanagon camper typically lasts around 3-4 weeks when running the refrigerator constantly. However, the duration can vary depending on factors like the size of the tank, the efficiency of the refrigerator, and how often it's opened. It's recommended to keep an eye on the propane level and refill as needed.
This is difficult to answer, because it depends on many factors -- how often the door is opened, the ambient temperature, how much is in the refrigerator, and whether new items were recently added to the refrigerator and need to be cooled down. Most frost-free refrigerators have a timer that runs them for 6 hours, then defrosts them for 30-35 minutes. This means, at the the upper limit a refrigerator might run 24 hours out of every 26 hours, or an equivalent of 22.1 hours per day. (The timer only runs when the compressor runs on energy saving models, so if the compressor motor doesn't run continuously, the intervals between defrost periods will be longer than 6 hours.) Once the contents are cooled down, a modern refrigerator in good condition might be expected to run 27% to 37% of the time at an ambient temperature of 70°F, i.e., 6.5 to 8.9 hours per day, and 45% to 61% of the time at an ambient temperature of 90°°F, i.e., 10.8 to 14.6 hours per day. The only practical way to determine how long a refrigerator runs each day is to connect a run-time counter to the compressor motor circuit and operate the refrigerator for one to two weeks, or longer, then read the total run time from the counter and calculate the average number of hours the refrigerator ran each day.
It is recommended to unplug the refrigerator when going on a long vacation unless there are perishable items inside that need to be kept cool. If you decide to unplug it, make sure to clean it out, leave the door slightly open to prevent mold growth, and clean the condenser coils before you leave.
The Pennine Way was officially opened on April 24, 1965. It is a long-distance footpath in England that stretches for 268 miles from Edale in Derbyshire to Kirk Yetholm in the Scottish Borders.
you'll have a homemade AC but not for long the refrigerator wont stay cool for long with the door open
A refrigerator will stay cold for about 4-6 hours without power, depending on factors like the temperature outside and how often the door is opened.
depends. how long is the door open? maybe enough heat gets inside to cause the refrigerator to start.
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.
suprisingly not very long once opened. I think its a week.
Once opened, kimchi can last for about 3 to 6 months if stored properly in the refrigerator.
Once opened, relish typically lasts for about 1 to 2 months when stored in the refrigerator.

Once opened, olives in brine can last for about 1-2 weeks if stored properly in the refrigerator.
Caesar dressing is typically good for about 1-2 weeks once opened if stored in the refrigerator.
Coconut milk is typically good for about 4-7 days after it has been opened if stored in the refrigerator.
