Question

diagram 1 diagram 2 which of the following depictions correctly describes the flow of heat? both diagrams are incorrect. diagram 2 diagram 1

Explanation:

Step1: Recall heat transfer principle

Heat flows from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature.

Step2: Analyze Diagram 1

In Diagram 1, the arrow is bidirectional which is incorrect as heat has a specific direction (higher to lower).

Step3: Analyze Diagram 2

In Diagram 2, the arrow is from \(46^{\circ}C\) (higher temperature) to \(23^{\circ}C\) (lower temperature) which follows the heat - transfer principle.

Answer:

Diagram 2
