Question

If you could find the coldest object on Earth, you would find that it _________.

a. contains no heat
b. has some thermal energy
c. has a temperature of absolute zero
d. would be emitting cold into the environment

Answer 1

B. Has some thermal energy. A and B both refer to absolute zero, which is nearly impossible to reach on earth or elsewhere. D is incorrect because it's impossible to emit cold, since cold isn't a form of energy (rather, it's just the absence of heat).

Answer 2

If you found the coldest object on Earth, you would find that
it has some thermal energy.

(In fact, this is even true of the coldest object in the solar system, or
in space itself. Space itself is about 3K warmer than absolute zero.)
