Problem

An ideal refrigerator in a kitchen works using a reversible Carnot cycle between the temperatures 4 ∘C4\text{ }^{\circ}\text{C} and 25 ∘C25\text{ }^{\circ}\text{C} . If 6.0 kJ6.0\text{ kJ} are extracted from the inside of the fridge, determine (1) the amount of thermal energy transferred to the kitchen. (2) the energy supplied to the fridge as mechanical work done.
