In the scenario described, heat flows from the hotter object to the cooler object when two solid blocks are in contact. Without specific temperatures for Block A and Block B, we can summarize the general rule:
- If Block A has a higher temperature than Block B, heat will flow from Block A to Block B.
- Conversely, if Block B is at a higher temperature than Block A, heat will flow from Block B to Block A.
To select the right diagram, look for the one that indicates heat transfer from the block at the higher temperature to the block at the lower temperature. If Block A is hotter, the heat flow is indicated from Block A to Block B, and vice versa.
If the diagrams represent the directions of heat flow with arrows, choose the one that correctly shows this transfer based on the temperatures of the blocks. Please provide any temperature information or diagrams if they are available for more specific guidance.
