Question

Please help me answer this, it's important!

An object is moved from the outdoors, which is at a temperature of 100 ºF, to a room at a temperature of 70 º F. What happens to the object when it’s placed in the room with a lower temperature?

Answer 1

Answer:
The object gives off more energy than it absorbs until it reaches a new lower thermal equilbrium where the amount of energy absorbed & given off is the same. (4th option)

Step-by-step explanation:
According to the first law of thermodynamics, heat energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and converted to and from other forms of energy.

Here, the object is places from a room of 100°F to a room at a temperature of 70 º F, so obviously the object will have a higher temperature when compared to that of its surroundings. So, the object will give of its heat (& cools down) while the room absorbs it (& warms up) making both of their temperature more or less the same after some time.
