A heat pump is used to heat a room where the outside temperature is -10°C. If the heat pump requires a power input of 2 kW, and the room requires a heat input of 15 kW to maintain the temperature at 25°C,

(a) find the COP of the heat pump.

(b) Determine if the heat pump is reversible, irreversible, or impossible.
