A heat pump is used to meet the heating requirements of a house and
maintain it at 20°C. On a day when the outdoor air temperature drops to
-2°C, the house is estimated to lose heat at a rate of 80,000 kJ/h. If the
heat pump under these conditions has a COP of 2.5, determine (a) the
power consumed by the heat pump and (b) the rate at which heat is
absorbed from th
