MCQ
The temperature of a solid object is observed to be constant during a period. In this period:
  • A
    Heat may have been supplied to the body.
  • B
    Heat may have been extracted from the body.
  • Both $A$ and $B$
  • D
    No heat ia ertracted from the body.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both $A$ and $B$
If there is no temperature change in a solid object, there is a possibility that the heat might have been supplied to the body that was used up in breaking the bond of the molecules, changing the state of the solid. This is why the temperature of the solid remians constant. Similar is the case when the heat is extracted from the body to change its state.
Since there is a possibility of supplying or extracting heat from the solid, we cannot say that heat is not supplied to the solid or is not extracted from the solid.
