Question 3(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)

Answer 1

This is a problem based on concept of first law of thermodynamics

if a body is giving heat it will be absorbed by some other body or surrounding.

Now we have taken metal at low temperature and water at high temperature

So water will lose some energy and the same amount of energy will be gained by metal. The exchange will continue untill both reach the same temperature.

So answer is

The energy gained by the metal equals the energy lost by the water.

Answer 2

The energy gained by the metal equals the energy lost by the water...
It is phrased this way because the focus is on the energy entering the system, more than it leaving the surroundings.
