The room heater can provide only `16^(@)C` in the room when the temperature outside is `-20^(@)C`. It is not warm and comfortable, that is why th electric stove with power of `1 kW` is also plugged in. Together these two devices maintain the room temperature of `22^(@)C`. Determine the thermal power of the heater.
