Question: 1 . ( 0 . 5 ) During an experiment conducted in a room at ( 2 5 ^ { circ }

1.(0.5) During an experiment conducted in a room at \(25^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\), a laboratory assistant measures that a refrigerator that draws 2 kW of power has removed \(30,000\mathrm{~kJ}\) of heat from the refrigerated space, which is maintained at \(-30^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\). The running time of the refrigerator during the experiment was 20 minutes. Determine if these measurements are reasonable by providing calculations.
2. A heat engine receives heat from a source at \(2190^{\circ}\mathrm{F}\) and has a Carnot thermal efficiency of \(40\%\). The heat engine does maximum work equal to 475 Btu . Determine:
a.(0.15) The heat supplied to the heat engine by the heat source, in Btu
b.(0.15) The heat rejected to the heat sink, in Btu
c.(0.2) The temperature of the heat sink, in \({}^{\circ}\mathrm{F}\)
