A liquid thermometer can be used to test for fevers. When body temperature increases, the liquid inside the thermometer expands and rises to show a higher
temperature reading. Which of the following explanations best describes the changes in thermal energy of the
particles during this specific example of heat transfer?
A. The tip of the thermometer is heated by radiation from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
B. The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
© C. The tip of the thermometer is heated by convection with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then conduct heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand
© D The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand
