Question

Two 4-grams paper towels are identical except for their thermal energies. Which paper towel has a higher temperature.

Answer 1

Answer:

a- The paper towel with more thermal energy

Explanation:

The paper towel with a higher temperature is one with more thermal energy.

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. And it is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles within a medium or body.

As body gains more thermal energy which is a form of kinetic energy, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases.

This will in turn lead to an increase in the temperature of the substance.

So, the paper towel with more thermal energy will have a higher temperature.
