Answer to Question 1

R-22 at 70 psig is saturated at just over 40F. Since 50F is greater than 40F, this refrigerant is superheated.

Answer to Question 2

60 cubic feet x 950 BTU/cubic foot = 57,000 BTUs per hour

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
