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

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
