Answer:
Heat discharged out of the refrigerator = 84 J
Explanation:
Coefficient of performance:
Ratio of work output to the amount of work or energy input. Coefficient of performance used generally as a measure of the energy ratio of air conditioners, space heaters. etc
Generally, Coefficient of performance (COP) = Wok output/ work input
Work output = Heat discharged out of the refrigerator, Work input = Electrical energy used by the refrigerator.
∴ Coefficient of performance (COP) = Heat discharged out of the refrigerator/ Electrical energy used by the refrigerator.
The energy used by the refrigerator = 40.0 J and
Coefficient of performance (COP) =2.10.
Heat discharged out of the refrigerator = 40 × 2.10 = 84 J
∴ Heat discharged out of the refrigerator = 84 J
