The answer is 3.
Here 120 is the heat rejected to the atmosphere, not the heat absorbed from the refrigerated space.
120 - 30 is the heat absorbed from the refigerated space.
The Work input is 30.

Answer will be 3 because here 120 is heat rejected not heat extracted.

120-30 = 90.
Cop=90/30=3 => ans.
Cop=90/30=3 => ans.

C.O.P = favourable effect/work input = 120/30 = 4.
Here favourable effect is rejection of heat.
Here favourable effect is rejection of heat.

@Rakesh Thakur.
Output/input not COP.
This is efficiency.
COP is the reciprocal of efficiency.
Output/input not COP.
This is efficiency.
COP is the reciprocal of efficiency.

cop = out put /input.
energy out /input.
120/30.
energy out /input.
120/30.

Answer should be 3.
Because the ratio of condenser heat rejection to power consumption is called co efficient of performance for the heat pump. And we have to find cop of refrigerator thus from equation
COP hp =COPr + 1.
Cop for refrigerator 3.
