energy is flowing in... so Q=+ve.... but internal energy is continuously decreasin as the refrigerator is connected to a heat pump....which extracts heat nrg from contents of fridge(thats how a fridge works)..... work is 0 because no work is done by the fridge on the contents .. the heat pump does the work....(if u have nelson thornes:elec and thermal physics... check that... fairly good explanation.)
