Multiple Choice
Rodric and Sydney are friends who live only five miles apart. Rodric tells Sydney the forecast in his area for this week, which is consistently 4 °F warmer than it is in Sydney’s area. Based on the picture, which statement describes the reason that the temperature of the city is higher than the rural area?
Choose the correct answer.
Sunlight is attracted to taller objects, thus making the city area warmer than the rural area.
There are more people moving around faster there, thus creating more kinetic energy than in the rural area.
Buildings generate more heat than farmhouses, thus making the surrounding area warmer than the rural area.
Asphalt streets absorb more thermal energy than grass does, and water vapor released by grass absorbs thermal energy from the air and results in cooler temperatures.

Multiple Choice
How does the temperature of the water in the large beaker compare or contrast with the temperature of the water in the small beaker?
Choose the correct answer.
The water in the large beaker and the water in the small beaker have the same temperature because the thermometers show the same reading.
The water in the small beaker has a greater temperature than the water in the large beaker because the water in the small beaker has less mass.
The water in the large beaker has a greater temperature than the water in the small beaker because the water in the large beaker has more thermal energy.
The water in the large beaker has a greater temperature than the water in the small beaker because the water in the large beaker does not cool as quickly when heated.
