In a refrigerator,heat is removed from a low-temperature reservoir and deposited at a high-temperature reservoir. This requires mechanical work,which is provided by an electric motor. If the motor power is $1 \ kW$ and heat is transferred from $-3^{\circ} C$ to $27^{\circ} C$,calculate the heat removed from the refrigerator per second,assuming the efficiency is $50\%$ of the ideal Carnot refrigerator. (in $kJ/s$)

Determine the coefficient of performance for the given temperature limits.
$T_{1} = 27^{\circ}C$ [outside fridge]
$T_{2} = -23^{\circ}C$ [inside fridge]

The coefficient of performance of a refrigerator is $5$. If the temperature inside the freezer is $-20^{\circ}C$,the temperature of the surroundings to which it rejects heat is ........ $^{\circ}C$.

The power of a refrigerator that can make $15 \ kg$ of ice at $0^{\circ}C$ from water at $30^{\circ}C$ in one hour is: (in $W$)

$A$ Carnot freezer takes heat from water at $0\,^{\circ}C$ inside it and rejects it to the room at a temperature of $27\,^{\circ}C$. The latent heat of ice is $336 \times 10^3\, J\,kg^{-1}$. If $5\, kg$ of water at $0\,^{\circ}C$ is converted into ice at $0\,^{\circ}C$ by the freezer,then the energy consumed by the freezer is close to
