Randall D. Knight β€” Heat Engines and Refrigerators: Problem 31

A Carnot refrigerator operating between \(-20^{\circ}\text{C}\) and \(+20^{\circ}\text{C}\) extracts heat from the cold reservoir at the rate \(200\text{ J/s}\). What are (a) the coefficient of performance of this refrigerator, (b) the rate at which work is done on the refrigerator, and (c) the rate at which heat is exhausted to the hot side?

πŸ“ Solution Approach
