The table describes the qualities of four objects.


Object Produces Light? Temperature (°C/°F)
a bouncing basketball no 20°C/68°F
the Sun's surface yes 5500°C/10,000°F
a lit lightbulb yes 250°C/482°F
a fork sitting on a table no 15°C/59°F

Which of the following is most likely true?
A.

Small objects produce more light than larger objects.

B.

Large objects produce less heat than smaller objects.

C.

Objects that produce light energy often produce heat energy.

D.

Objects that do not produce light energy have high temperatures.

1 answer

The most likely true statement is:

C. Objects that produce light energy often produce heat energy.

This is supported by the example of the Sun and a lit lightbulb, both of which produce light and also have high temperatures. In contrast, the other statements do not have sufficient evidence based on the table provided.
