The relative coefficient of performance is equal to

A. $$\frac{{{\text{Theoretical C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}{{{\text{Actual C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}$$

B. $$\frac{{{\text{Actual C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}{{{\text{Theoretical C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}$$

C. Actual C.O.P. × Theoretical C.O.P.

D. None of these

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The ratio of the actual C.O.P. to the theoretical C.O.P. is known as relative coefficient of performance.
The relative coefficient of performance is equal to $$\frac{{{\text{Actual C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}{{{\text{Theoretical C}}{\text{.O}}{\text{.P}}{\text{.}}}}$$
