Question

the thermal energy in a hot iron flows into a shirt. what can possibly be said about this situation? the iron is warmer than the shirt. the iron has less energy than the shirt. the iron is 92°c and the shirt is 96°c. the iron has less heat than the shirt.

Answer 1

the thermal energy in the Hot iron flows into the shirt so the iron is warmer than the shirt so the energy is transferred from the iron (source) into the shirt (sink)

hope that helps

Answer 2

Answer : Option A) The iron is warmer than the shirt.

Explanation :

In the given information, the thermal energy in a hot iron flows into a shirt because the iron is warmer than the shirt. Usually the energy transformation takes place between the objects which are occupied with unequally distributed energy. Here, iron has higher thermal energy than the shirt that is suppose to be ironed. And shirt is having low thermal energy compared to iron. Therefore the energy flows from higher side to the lower one.
