Question: 6 . ( 2 0 points ) A heat pump operating on the ideal vapor compression cycle uses R - 1 3 4 a as

6.(20 points) A heat pump operating on the ideal vapor compression cycle uses R-134a as the working fluid. The evaporator and condenser temperatures are \(-10^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and \(45^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) respectively.
(a)(5 points) Determine the coefficient of performance (COP)
(b)(5 points) Calculate the compressor work input per kg of refrigerant
(c)(5 points) Find the heat rejection rate in the condenser for a mass flow rate of \(0.05\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{s}\)
(d)(5 points) Calculate the evaporator capacity
6 . ( 2 0 points ) A heat pump operating on the
