If sink and source temperature of a refrigerator are $4^{\circ} C$ and $15^{\circ} C$ respectively. Then efficiency of refrigerator is

A

$0.076$

B

$0.382$

C

$0.019$

D

$1$

Solution

The efficiency of refrigerator is given by,

$\eta=\left(1-\frac{ T _{2}}{ T _{1}}\right)$

Substitute the values as,

$\eta=\left(1-\frac{273+4}{273+15}\right)$

$=\frac{11}{288}$

$=0.0382$
