Both an A/C unit and a fridge pump heat from one area into another. In the A/C unit the heat is pumped out of the room and into a discharge area, normally the outside atmosphere, thus the room is cooled, wheras for a fridge the heat is pumped from inside the fridge out into the room, thus the inside of the fridge is cooled and the room is warmed. The only difference between the working of the two is that the "room" is a different side of the heat pump.

What will happen to an inflated balloon if it is put in a refrigerator?
The volume of air inside the balloon will decrease as the temperature drops in the refrigerator, causing the balloon to slightly shrink. When the balloon is taken out of the refrigerator and warms up, the air inside will expand again and the balloon will return to its original size.
When a refrigerant condenses the surrounding air is .?
When a refrigerant condenses, it releases heat energy, which warms up the surrounding air. This warming effect is the reason why the air around the condenser coils of a refrigerator or air conditioning unit feels warm.
Why does an air conditioner cools a room while the refrigerator warms a room?
Because the refrigerator moves heat from the inside of the fridge to the outside, dumping it into the room. On top of that, the actual machine that moves the heat also gets warm, and sheds it heat into the room too. The A/C always have to have two sides/units, to allow it to move heat from inside the room to outside the room. Basically, a room with an A/C works pretty much like a room-sized fridge. There are industrial grade fridges which work like A/C units, with a separate heat dumping unit that can be placed outside the room/building. They take a lot more plumbing to install, so you rarely find them in private homes.
Why does an air conditioner must cycle on and off to keep the room cooled to a preset temperature?
Seriously? Cold air blows out of the air conditioner when it's on, reducing the temperature of the room. When the temperature in the room reaches some preset value, the air conditioner shuts off to prevent the temperature from dropping any lower. Once the air conditioner is shut off, heat sources within the room including people, appliances, and heat entering through walls and windows causes the temperature in the room to increase. When this happens the air conditioner kicks on again to bring the temperature back down. It ain't rocket science.
Which specific type of light on the electromagnetic spectrum actually warms you up?
The specific type of light on the electromagnetic spectrum that warms you up is infrared light.
What gets colder as it gets hot?
an air conditioner because it warms up to make cold air
What is the water reservoir bottle for?
A water reservoir is to catch excess water in a flowing system. In a car, the bottle holds coolant that overflows from the top of the radiator on the inside when the engine warms up.
How does putting hot water into a fridge to cool it waste electricity?
The hot water warms the refrigerator, which forces it to turn on to cool it off.
What will happen to an inflated balloon if it is put in a refrigerator?
The volume of air inside the balloon will decrease as the temperature drops in the refrigerator, causing the balloon to slightly shrink. When the balloon is taken out of the refrigerator and warms up, the air inside will expand again and the balloon will return to its original size.
What is defrost?
Allowing frozen food to thaw either by leaving out in room temperature or in a microwave defrost cycle. Or when a refrigerator temporarily warms up to melt away frost in the freezer compartment.
No ciculation in cooling system and engine overheating what is going on Water does not appear to be circulating and reservoir never warms up. Coolant always cool. Engine overheating.?
Failed thermostat.
Why does my truck make a loud tapping noise from the motor til it warms up?
sticky valve most likely. give it an oil change and throw some lucas oil conditioner in there
Why does putting a soda can in the refrigerator cool the soda down?
Putting a soda can in the refrigerator cools it down because the refrigerator is colder than room temperature, so heat transfers from the warmer soda to the colder air inside the fridge, cooling the soda.
How does the heater work on a 2008 Prius?
Works the same as most cars, using hot coolant. One advantage is in cold weather it warms up faster as it stores hot coolant in a insulated reservoir when parked.
What warms the earth to cause evaporation?
The sun warms the earth.
Which warms faster water or land?
The land warms faster
When a refrigerant condenses the surrounding air is .?
When a refrigerant condenses, it releases heat energy, which warms up the surrounding air. This warming effect is the reason why the air around the condenser coils of a refrigerator or air conditioning unit feels warm.
