question 5 (1 point)
you are holding a cold glass of iced tea on a warm day. which of the following will take place?
o a the temperature of the glass will decrease
o b the temperature of your hand will increase
o c heat will travel from your hand to the glass
o d cold will travel from the glass to your hand.

Explanation:

Heat transfer occurs from a warmer object to a cooler one. Here, the hand is warmer than the cold glass. So, heat will move from the hand (warmer) to the glass (cooler). Temperature of the glass will increase (not decrease as in option a), temperature of the hand will decrease (not increase as in option b). Cold is not a substance that travels (option d is incorrect as it misrepresents heat transfer concept).

Answer:

C. Heat will travel from your hand to the glass
