Question

An ice cube floats in a glass of water. Which of the following statements is true? Heat will flow from the water into the ice. Heat will flow from the ice into the water. Cold will flow from the water into the ice. Cold will flow from the ice into the water.

Answer 1

d. is true. Cold water will flow from the ice into the water.

Basically, if you put ice in water, the water is bound to get colder.

Answer 2

Heat will flow from the water into the ice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat is a dynamic energy which flow from high temperature object to low temperature object.

So this energy flow due to temperature gradient.

Here when a cube of ice is floating in the water then we know that temperature of ice cube is less than the temperature of water always.

So here when we mix them then heat will flow from water to ice cube as it always flow from high temperature to low temperature

So here the correct answer will be

Heat will flow from the water into the ice.
