Leanna is investigating heat transfer using a metal nail and foam cup filled with hot water. First, she records the temperature of the water and nail. Next, she places the nail in the hot water for ten minutes. Finally, she removes the nail from the water and records the temperature of the water and nail. The table shows her data. How does the motion of the molecules in the nail change after the nail is placed in the hot water?
