Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If two objects are in thermal contact, what will happen to their temperatures over time?
  • Step 1: Identify the two objects that are in thermal contact.
  • Step 2: Determine the initial temperatures of both objects.
  • Step 3: Identify which object is hotter and which is cooler.
  • Step 4: Understand that heat will flow from the hotter object to the cooler object.
  • Step 5: Allow time for the heat transfer to occur.
  • Step 6: Continue the process until both objects reach the same temperature, known as thermal equilibrium.
