Pls. Answer thank you! An air-conditioning system is used to maintain a house at 75°F when the temperature outside is 95°F. The house is gaining the heat through the walls and windows at a rate of 1250 Btu/min, and the heat generation rate within the house from people, lights, and appliances amounts to 350 Btu/min. Determine the minimum power input required for this air-conditioning system.

A heat pump is used to extract heat from the outside atmosphere to heat the inside of a building. On a day when the outside air temperature is Tc°C, the heat pump is operating to a COP of 3.7, maintaining the inside temperature of the building at Th°C.

A homeowner is trying to decide whether to heat with a furnace rated at 95% efficiency or by an electrically powered heat pump. She lives in a town where electricity is produced by a coal-fired power plant that claims to operate with 1st law efficiency that is 55% of the Carnot limit. The heat pump's CoP is advertised to be 40% of the Carnot limit. For what range of outside temperatures To would the 2nd law efficiency of the furnace be greater than that of the heat pump? Assume T+ = 400°C, T- = T= 40°C. %3D
