Vedclass · Answer

(A) When the temperature of an object is equal to that of the human body,no heat is transferred between the object and the body.Since the human body is at a constant temperature,if the objects are also at that same temperature,there is no net flow of heat.Therefore,both the block of wood and the block of metal will feel neither cold nor hot,or they will feel equally neutral,which is the condition described as feeling 'equally cold or hot' (i.e.,no temperature difference is perceived).Thus,the correct answer is that their temperatures are equal to the temperature of the human body.

At a common temperature,a block of wood and a block of metal feel equally cold or hot. The temperatures of the block of wood and the block of metal are:
