  • Q12
    When a cup of hot coffee is placed in a room at a lower temperature, what happens to the heat energy from the coffee according to the principles of heat transfer?
    Heat flows from the surrounding air to the coffee, making the coffee hotter.
    Heat remains constant in the coffee until it is consumed.
    Heat flows from the coffee into the surrounding air, but the temperatures never equalize.
    Heat flows from the coffee to the surrounding air until both reach the same temperature.

  • Q13
    Which statement best describes why a metal spoon feels colder than a wooden spoon when both are at the same room temperature?
    Metal is a better conductor of heat, so it transfers heat away from your hand more quickly.
    Metal and wood conduct heat equally, so they should feel the same.
    Wood absorbs heat from the room temperature air, making it feel warmer.
    Wood is a better conductor of heat, so it transfers heat to your hand faster.

    Which of the following scenarios best illustrates the concept of thermal equilibrium?
    A fan cooling down a warm room without changing the air temperature.
    An ice cube melting in a glass of warm water until both reach the same temperature.
    A stove heating a pan continuously until the pan becomes very hot.
    A refrigerator keeping ice cubes frozen at a constant low temperature.

    Heat from the garage prevents the car's windshield from reaching freezing temperatures.
    Frost only forms in direct sunlight, not in a garage.
    Windshield wipers automatically remove frost in a garage.
    The car generates heat, preventing frost formation.
