A house, heated by a Carnot heat pump, needs to be maintained at 20°C at all times. When the ambient temperature outside drops to -10°C, the rate at which heat is lost from the house is estimated to be 25kW. Determine the minimum electrical power required (in kW) to drive the heat pump Answer: W = kW
