Find if refrigerator violates second law of thermodynamics


A refrigerator removes heat from the refrigerated space at 2 oC at a rate of 300 kJ/min and rejects heat to the kitchen air at 26 oC at a rate of 375 kJ/min. Determine if this refrigerator violates the second law of thermodynamics on the basis of a) the Clausius inequality and b) the Carnot principle.
