A mini-fridge needs to maintain a temperature of 277 K. The air outside the mini-fridge has a temperature of 292 K. Every fifteen minutes, 3.5 x 105 J of energy is transferred out of the mini-fridge and 4.37 x 105 J of energy is transferred into the surrounding air.
1) What is the power output (that is, the work done per second) of the compressor in the mini-fridge?
2) What is the coefficient of performance of this mini-fridge?
3) If this mini-fridge were instead cooled by a Carnot engine used as a refrigerator, what would its coefficient of performance be?4) If the mini-fridge were cooled by a Carnot engine, how much energy would be transferred out of the mini-fridge every fifteen minutes if the power output of the compressor was the same as above?

Next a skier is pulled by a tow rope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of 15 with the horizontal. the rope moves parallel to the slope with a constant speed of 0.69 m/s. the force of the rope does 800 3 of work on the skier as the skier moves a distance of 8.4 m up the incline. (a) if the rope moved with a constant speed of 2.2 m/s how much work would the force of the rope do on the skier as the skler moved a distance of 8.4 m up the incline? at what rate is the force of the rope doing work on the skier when the rope moves with a speed of (b) 0.69 m/s and (c) 2.2 m/s?

Alinearly polarized electromagnetic wave has an average intensity of 196 w/m^2. this wave is directed towards two ideal polarizers (in real polarizers, transmission is also effected by reflection and absorption). polarizer a is oriented with its transmission axis at an angle of θ_1=20.8∘ with the incident electric field. polarizer b has its axis at an angle of θ_2=63.0∘ with the incident electric field. what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer a? what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer b? suppose that the two polarizers a and b are interchanged. what would the average intensity be after passing through both polarizers?
