IF WE KEEP REFRIGERATOR DOOR OPEN, WILL IT ABLE TO KEEP THE ROOM COOL?

For a moment, it seems like that !
But the compressor does work to extract heat from the content and this heat is thrown out from the refrigerator.

If we keep the door open for long time then heat is taken from the room (from front portion)and thrown back to the room. So the temperature of the room remains the same. Hence, the refrigerator will not be able to keep the room cool.

UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION

In uniform circular motion,  1. Speed is constant. 2. Velocity is variable and acts along tangential direction  at a point. 3. Centripetal Force and acceleration act along the radius towards the centre if the circular path.  4. Centrifugal force appears to  act radially outwards. It is a virtual  ,fictitious force, not a real force.

MIRAGE. HOW IS IT FORMED ?

MIRAGE is formed by the phenomenon of total INTERNAL reflection of light. Mirage is formed in extremely high or low temperature conditions. For example: When a sand surface (desert) or road surface is heated, the air above this surface is also heated and rises up. As a consequence, the density of air in the lower level is less than that of upper level.   Now , the light from any object starting from the upper layers (denser medium) travels to lower layers ( rarer medium), total internal reflection takes place i.e, the light is reflected back towards the denser medium. When these light rays reflected back, it seems that the light rays are refected from some bright reflecting surfaces on the ground.  Hence the  image is seen below the object.
