Refrigerators
Does the light really go out when we close the door? From the early icebox to the modern built-in frost-free stainless steel double door works of art, refrigerators have improved greatly over the years, and we seldom think about them until they don't work right. From cleaning methods to repairs, this category is the place to get advice and answers to your questions about refrigerators.

How does a refrigerator magnet hold a message on the refrigerator door?
A refrigerator magnet holds a message on the refrigerator door by creating a magnetic field that attracts to the metal surface of the fridge. The magnet's force is strong enough to overcome the force of gravity, allowing it to hold the message in place.
Describe three methods of heat transfer?
Conduction
Convection
Radiation.
In case of conduction material particles would vibrate being in the same position. So no movement of material particles. Example. Heating one end of a metal rod soon makes other end also hot.
In convection molecules would move and take over the heat energy. Example heating water in a container. Those molecules at the bottom would gain heat energy in the form of increasing kinetic energy. So water at the bottom becomes light and and at the top being cold it will be more denser. So dense water would come down and hot water would go up. This process would continue till the whole region gains the boiling point.
So water is Bad Conductor but a good Convector
In the phenomenon of radiation, no material medium is necessary. Just the heat is propagated in the form of electro magnetic waves. The best example is getting heat right from the sun just through the vacuum present in between sun and our earth
How is 66cm wide 113cm high 43cm deep converted to liters?
A liter is the same as a cubic decimeter, so one way to do this is to convert all measurements to decimeters:
66 cm x 113 cm x 43 cm
= 6.6 dm x 11.3 dm x 4.3 dm
After you multiply the three numbers, you get cubic decimeters, or liters.
Another way to do this is to multiply the centimeters. The result will be in cubic centimeters. You need to divide this result by 1000 to get liters.

Why does food go off more slowly in a freezer than in a fridge?
because it does and food will go off even longer if you keep it in your bum because the poo keeps it nice and cool.
Is your ham bone still fresh after 6 days in the refrigerator?
It depends on how cold your refrigerator is and how fresh it was when you put it in.
How did carl paul gottfried von linde invent the refrigerator?
Carl Paul Gottfried von Linde invented the refrigerator by developing a process of liquifying gases, particularly ammonia, in order to create a cooling effect. He then used this process to build the first practical and efficient refrigeration system, which became the basis for modern refrigeration technology.
What energy transformation happens in a refrigerator?
In a refrigerator, electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy by the compressor to remove heat from the interior of the refrigerator. This process allows the refrigerator to maintain a cooler temperature inside to preserve food and beverages.
It is rare for a refrigerator to explode, but it is possible if there is a gas leak or a malfunction in the cooling system. If there is a build-up of gases like propane or butane inside the refrigerator, there is a risk of explosion. This is why it is important to properly maintain and monitor your refrigerator for any signs of damage or malfunction.
What kinds of motors are used in household washing machines and refrigerators?
They use a Single-Phase AC motor
Why is frigidaire refrigerator beeping and wont stop?
Try holding the on/off switch to turn it off. When it is off unplug it
and plug it back in. Then turn the refrigerator back on. It worked for me.
What is inside a refrigerator wall?
Usually it's a foam type insulation between the refrigerator walls. Most of the times simple Styrofoam. To prevent condensation the walls often have a semi-vacuum environment.
How does convection cool the whole of the refrigerator?
Cold air is pumped ina at the top, as hot air rises. The cold air will sink, cooling all the food as it sinks, and all the time more cool air is pumped in and hot air is taken out.
What is the size of a refrigerator in a semi truck?
Most will accommodate a 15 x 15 x 21 " unit. If no inverter, of course 12 volt. If u have an APU with a good sized inverter, u can get a compressor type unit instead of the thermoelectric variety
If flu vaccine is left out of refrigerator how long is it good for?
how long is flu vaccine good for if left out of the refrigerator
Was the invention of the fridge a positive or negative impact?
It was positive for our economy then, but now we are realizing that the creation of the fridge sparked global warming due to the fact that it takes in heat energy to create cold air like in the fridge. So in conclusion it was both positive and negative.
Do you have to wait to turn on a refrigerator after a move?
You should leave it for 24 hours before turning back on.
Does putting makeup in a refrigerator keep it fresh?
This is a response from a scientist. I only put unused makeup in the fridge. Heat caused chemical reactions that will lead to break down of the chemicals but most importantly, the fats in the makeup, especially foundations, will become rancid over a period of time. Also, low temperatures slowdown bacterial growth and lengthens the life span of antimicrobials in the makeup. Must avoid moving your makeup back and forth between hot and cold temperatures. This affects its consistency.
