Question
Just like the efficiency can be used to tell how 'good' an engine is, the Coefficient of Performance can be used to compare refrigerators. If a refrigerator requires 1.21×104 J of work to remove 3.23×104 J of energy from the inside of a refrigerator, what is the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator?
2.How much energy is transferred into the hot reservoir (ie., the kitchen)? Cant figure out how to do this part
