Question

Victoria looking at the readout of a digital thermometer, which her brother has hidden. She does not know where the sensor is, but the display reads 25°C. Which of these is the most logical place for Victoria to begin looking for the sensor?
a.
outside, in the snow
b.
in her brother’s mouth
c.
on her desk
d.
in a glass of drinking water

Answer 1

c. on her desk

25°C is about normal room temperature. Snow would be near 0°C, a person’s mouth about 37°C, and water could be cooler or warmer, so the desk (ambient indoor location) is the most likely place.
