Question #1
The coefficient of performance of a refrigerator is defined as:
A. Heat rejected / Work input
B. Work input / Heat rejected
C. Heat extracted / Work input
D. Work input / Heat extracted

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Coefficient of performance (COP) for refrigerator: COP = Q₂ / W, where Q₂ is heat extracted from cold reservoir, W is work input. By energy conservation, Q₁ = Q₂ + W (heat rejected to hot reservoir). COP > 1 typically. Option A is inverse; C and D relate to heat engine efficiency. Memory aid: 'Refrigerator COP = desired output (cooling) / work input'. This thermodynamics definition is frequently tested in competitive exams. Always distinguish refrigerator COP (cooling effect per work) from heat engine efficiency (work output per heat input).

Question #3
Nuclear reactor moderator function:
A. Emit neutrons
B. Slow neutrons
C. Shield radiation
D. Absorb neutrons

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Moderator (water, graphite) slows fast neutrons to thermal energies for efficient fission in U-235. Control rods absorb neutrons to regulate reaction. Memory tip: 'Moderator = neutron slower; Control rods = neutron absorber'. Reactor component function frequently tested in competitive nuclear physics questions.
