Two identical metal spheres at 8 °C are put in equal amount of water in two beakers, as shown below. Two beakers are side by side; one is labeled Beaker A and the other is labeled Beaker B. Both beakers are the same shape, size, and are about two-thirds full with water. Both beakers have a metal sphere with a temperature of eight degrees Celsius submerged in the water. Heat flows from the metal sphere to the water in Beaker A and from the water to the metal sphere in Beaker B. Which statement is correct? The temperature of the water is greater than 8 °C in Beaker A. The temperature of the water is lower than 8 °C in Beaker B. The temperature of the water in Beaker A will increase. The temperature of the water in Beaker B will increase.

the beakers

Because of heat flow, i believe the answer is A but I couldn't be too sure.

BECCAURGIRL:

I think you're right

Ferrari:

i think answer is A because B doesn't seem to right because the temp inside is 8* so it ain't really gonna change D ain't right because the temp won't decrease its either A or C

BECCAURGIRL:

Just do what you think is the best choice I'd say

Ferrari:

i need halp :<

Ferrari:

imma actually say b because of the fact that: in heat transfer the warmer goes to the colder and in this situation the water, which is colder, is transferring to the sphere, which is 8* and so the temperature will decrease

Ferrari:

nvm bro im just gonna say b
