6. Which of the following processes involve heat?
1. The brakes in your car get hot when you stop.
2. A steel block is placed under a candle.
3. You push a rigid cylinder of gas across a frictionless surface.
4. You push a piston into a cylinder of gas, increasing the temperature of the gas.
5. You place a cylinder of gas in hot water. The gas expands, causing a piston to rise and lift a weight. The temperature of the gas does not change.

10. Objects A and B are brought into close thermal contact with each other, but they are well isolated from their surroundings. Initially TA = 0°C and TB = 100°C. The specific heat of A is more than the specific heat of B. The two objects will soon reach a common final temperature Tf. The final temperature is
1. Tf > 50°C.
2. Tf = 50°C.
3. Tf < 50°C.
