Question
which of the following describes how heat transfers? * 10 points heat transfers from an area of high temperature to an area of low temperature. heat transfer from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature. heat transfers from an area of high temperature to an area of high temperature. heat can transfer from high to low temperatures and low to high temperatures.
Heat transfer occurs spontaneously from regions of higher temperature to regions of lower temperature due to the second - law of thermodynamics which states that natural processes tend to increase the entropy of the universe. Heat transfer in the opposite direction (from low to high temperature) does not occur spontaneously and requires external work input (as in refrigeration).
