An empty paper cup is the same temperature as the air in the room. A student fills the cup with cold water. Which of the following describes how thermal energy is transferred? O Thermal energy is transferred from the cold water to the cup until they are at the same temperature.
Thermal energy is transferred from the cup to the cold water until they are at the same temperature.
O Thermal energy is transferred from the cup to the cold water until the cup has no more thermal energy
Thermal energy is not transferred between the cup and the cold water

Thermal energy is transferred from the cup to the cold water until they are at the same temperature.

Explanation:

The three types of thermal energy transfer is radiation, conduction and convection.

During energy transfer, thermal energy is being transferred from the warmer  body (of higher temperature with faster-moving particles) to the colder body (of lower temperature with slower-moving particles) until both of the bodies are in thermal equilibrium (the same temperature). Since the cup is warmer than the cold water, Thermal energy is transferred from the cup to the cold water until they are at the same temperature.
