Q2/ A Carnot engine is coupled to a Carnot refrigerator so that all of the work produced by the engine is used by the refrigerator in extraction of heat from a heat reservoir at 0 C at the rate of 35 kJ s-1. The source of energy for the Carnot engine is a heat reservoir at 250 C. If both devices discard heat to the surrounding at 25. How much heat does the engine absorb from its heat source reservoir?
