A skier wears a jacket filled with goose down that is 15 mm thick. Another skier wears a wool sweater that is 4.0 mm thick. Both have the same surface area. Assuming the temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of each garment is the same, calculate the ratio (wool/goose down) of the heat lost due to conduction during the same time interval. Isn't heat flow directly proportional to the distance?

Acarnot refrigerator operates in a room in which the temperature is 21°c and of power when operating. if the food compartment of the refrigerator is consumes 3 kw to be maintained at 2°c, determine (a) the coefficient of performance of the cycle and (b) the rate of heat removal from the food compartment. refrigerator cycle that has a higher coefficient of performance than that of the discussed (e) is it possible to develop a carn ot refrigerator, operating between the same temperature limits? explain
