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 63,000 kJ/h. If the heat pump under these conditions has a COP of 1.8, determine the rate at which heat is absorbed from the cold outdoor air.
