Question

Two bodies B and C with intial temperatures $T_{1}and$$T_2$are brought in contact. Temperature at thermal equilibrium is $T$. If $T_2>$$T_1$then,

• A. $T>T_1$
• B. $T<T_1$
• C. $T>T_2$
• D. $T=T_1$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $T>T_1$

When two bodies are brought in contact, heat flows from higher temperature to lower temperature. In this case, since heat flows from C to B, the temperature of B will increase while that of C will decrease and both of them will attain an equilibrium temperature. Thus, we can say $T>T_1$
