Question

what will happen when the block is placed into the liquid?
a ○ energy will transfer from the liquid to the block because thermal energy moves from warmer temperatures to cooler temperatures.
b ○ energy will transfer from the liquid to the block because thermal energy moves from more massive substances to less massive substances.
c ○ energy will transfer from the block to the liquid because thermal energy moves from cooler temperatures to warmer temperatures.
d ○ energy will transfer from the block to the liquid because thermal energy moves from more massive substances to less massive substances.

Explanation:

Heat transfer occurs from a warmer object to a cooler one. Here, the liquid is at \(70^{\circ}C\) and the block is at \(40^{\circ}C\). So, thermal energy (heat) will move from the warmer (liquid) to the cooler (block).

Answer:

B. Energy will transfer from the liquid to the block because thermal energy moves from warmer temperatures to cooler temperatures.
