A metal bar is heated at one end. What can be said about the particles inside the bar?

• a) Particles vibrate more at the cold end than the hot end and energy is transferred away from the heat source.
• b) Particles vibrate more at the hot end than the cold end and energy is transferred away from the heat source.
• c) Particles vibrate more at the cold end than the hot end and energy is transferred towards the heat source.
• d) Particles vibrate more at the hot end than the cold end and energy is transferred towards from the heat source.

If a metal block and wooden block are placed in a room of the same temperature, which statement is true?

• a) The metal block feels colder because it is colder

• b) The wooden block feels warmer because it is warmer

• c) Both blocks feel the same temperature because they are the same temperature

• d) The metal block feels cold and the wooden block feels warm due to the speed that is heat transferred, not due to a difference in temperature of the room
