Question

Which scenario correctly illustrates heat?(1 point)

cold person gets even colder when they sit in a sauna with a temperature of 105°F

bathtub full of hot water gets even warmer in a cold room

ice in a cold glass of water remains ice and never melts

cold person’s hands get warmer by holding a rock that has been sitting in the sun

Answer 1

Correct answer: "cold person’s hands get warmer by holding a rock that has been sitting in the sun."

Explanation: Heat is the transfer of thermal energy from a hotter object to a colder one. The sun-warmed rock is hotter than the hands, so heat flows from the rock into the hands, making them warmer.
