Heat that flows by conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between substances in contact. What must occur for
this to happen?
O The two systems must be the same temperature.
The two systems must not be touching each another.
O One system must have higher kinetic energy than the other system.
O The thermal energy of one system must be the same as the thermal energy of the other system.

Answer:

O One system must have higher kinetic energy than the other system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Higher KE of the system means hotter......the hotter will transfer heat to the cooler by conduction when they are in contact.
