An irreversible heat engine extracts heat from a high temperature source at a rate of $$100kW$$ and rejects heat to a sink at a rate of $$50kW.$$ The entire work output of the heat engine is used to drive a reversible heat pump operating between a set of independent isothermal heat reservoirs at $${17^ \circ }C$$ and $${75^ \circ }C$$. The rate (in $$kW$$) at which the heat pump delivers heat to its high temperature sink is
A
$$50$$
B
$$250$$
C
$$300$$
D
$$360$$
