Question 17

Sasha drops some of her ice cream sundae on a hot sidewalk. Which of the following correctly describes what happens next?

Accepted Answer

Heat from the sidewalk is transferred to the ice cream, increasing the temperature of the ice cream.

Answer

The temperature of the sidewalk and the ice cream both remain unchanged.

Answer

The temperature of the ice cream increases as it sends cold into the sidewalk.

Answer

Cold from the ice cream is transferred to the sidewalk, decreasing the temperature of the sidewalk.

Question 18

Erin places some ice cubes into freshly made tea that is still quite warm. Which of the following correctly describes what happens to the ice cubes?

Accepted Answer

Some of the heat from the tea is transferred to the ice cubes and causes them to melt.

Answer

The temperature of the ice cubes remains the same as the temperature of the tea drops.

Answer

The cold from the ice cubes is transferred into the tea and causes the cubes to warm up and melt.

Answer

Heat is transferred between the ice cubes and the tea, which causes the temperature of the tea to increase.

Question 19

On a particularly cold winter day, Kurt takes a plate of hot food outside to eat lunch. His mother calls him back inside and he forgets the plate outside. Which of the following will happen next?

Accepted Answer

Heat from the food transfers to the surrounding air until the food reaches the same temperature as the air.

Answer

Cold from the air gets inside the food until the food is the same temperature as the air.

Answer

Cold from the air moves into the food until the temperature of the food drops below the temperature of the air.

Answer

Heat from the food increases the temperature of the surrounding air until the air is the same temperature as the food.
