A refrigerator with `COP= 1//3` release `200 J` at heat to a reservoir. Then the work done on the working substance is

A

`(100)/(3)` J

B

100J

C

`(200)/(3)` J

D

150 J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`beta=(Q_2)/(W) = > W=(Q_2)/(beta)`
`implies Q_1-Q_2=(Q_2)/(1//3)=3Q_2 implies 4Q_2=Q_1 implies Q_2 = 50J`
Now, `W=Q_1-Q_2=200-50=150 J`

Refrigerator is an apparatus which takes heat from a cold body, work is done on it and the work done together with the heat absorbed is rejected to the source. An ideal refrigerator can be regarded as Carnot's ideal heat engine working in the reverse direction. The coefficient of performance of refrigerator is defined as beta = ("Heat extracted from cold reservoir")/("work done on working substance") = (Q_(2))/(W) = (Q_(2))/(Q_(1)- Q_(2)) = (T_(2))/(T_(1) - T_(2)) A Carnot's refrigerator takes heat from water at 0^(@)C and discards it to a room temperature at 27^(@)C . 1 Kg of water at 0^(@)C is to be changed into ice at 0^(@)C. (L_(ice) = 80"kcal//kg") What is the work done by the refrigerator in this process ( 1 "cal" = 4.2 "joule" )

If alpha is the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator and 'Q_(1)' is heat released to the hot reservoir, then the heat extracted from the cold reservoir 'Q_(2)' is

A Carnot's engine works as refrigerator between 250 K and 300K. It receives 500 cal heat from the reservoir at the lower temperature. The amount of work done in each cycle to operate the refrigerator is :

A carnot engine works between temperatures 327^(@)C and 27^(@)C . If the engine takes 1600 J of heat from the higher temperature reservoir, the work done by the engine per cycle (in Joule) is equal to __________.

During isothermal expansion at 800 K, the working substance of a Carnot's engine extracts 480 cal of heat. If the sink be at 300 K, calculate (i) the work done by the working substance during isothermal expansion (ii) the work done on the substance during isothermal compression (iii) the efficiency of the ideal engine.
