$A$ refrigerator with a coefficient of performance of $1/3$ releases $200 \ J$ of heat. What is the work done on the working substance in Joules?

In a cold storage,ice melts at the rate of $2 \ kg$ per hour when the external temperature is $20^{\circ} C$. The minimum power output of the motor used to drive the refrigerator which just prevents the ice from melting is (latent heat of fusion of ice $= 80 \ cal \ g^{-1}$) (in $W$)

Why can the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator never be infinite?

For a refrigerator,heat absorbed from the cold reservoir (sink) is $500\, J$ and heat rejected to the hot reservoir (source) is $800\, J$. The coefficient of performance is:
