Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

COP is Coeficient of performance, it relates useful heat moved with work consumed, it is used in refrigerators and heat pumps.

For refrigerators the useful heat is the one extracted from the cold reservoir. Therefore:


COP = (Tcold)/(T.hot - Tcold)

This often exceeds 1.
