A teacher opens a window on a cold day. Which statement explains why the room starts to feel cooler? (1 point)

Responses

The kinetic energy of the air molecules outside is higher than the kinetic energy of the air molecules inside.
The kinetic energy of the air molecules outside is higher than the kinetic energy of the air molecules inside.

Cold air is moving into the room from outside.
Cold air is moving into the room from outside.

The density of the air is lower on the inside than on the outside.
The density of the air is lower on the inside than on the outside.

Air moves from the areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature.

The correct statement that explains why the room starts to feel cooler is:

Cold air is moving into the room from outside.

When the window is opened, cold air from outside enters the room, causing the overall temperature to drop and making the room feel cooler.

A student takes the temperature of a bottle of liquid water and a tub filled with ice. The student then places the bottle of liquid water into the tub of ice. After 15 minutes, which of the follow best describes what happens to the temperature of each?
(1 point)
Responses

The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases
The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases

The temperature of the ice decreases, while the temperature of the water increases
The temperature of the ice decreases, while the temperature of the water increases

Both the bottle and the ice stay the same temperature
Both the bottle and the ice stay the same temperature

The temperature of both the ice and water decrease.

The best response to describe what happens to the temperature of each after 15 minutes is:

The temperature of the ice increases, while the temperature of the water decreases.

When the liquid water is placed in the tub of ice, heat transfers from the warmer water to the colder ice. As a result, the temperature of the water decreases, while the temperature of the ice (and the water formed from melting ice) increases.
