Mark is in charge of making change at his family's garage sale on a hot summer day. He runs low on change and brings out a jar of pennies from the house. He keeps the lid off of the jar. Later in the day, he notices that the pennies are hot. Which statement best explains what happened?\

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

The question is incomplete without the options. However, when a metal (in this case what the pennies are made of) is left in direct contact with the heat from the sun, it conducts this heat and becomes hot. This process is called thermal conduction. The thermal energy is readily accepted by the material in which the pennies are made of thereby increasing the thermal energy of the penny coin  which then makes the pennies hot after being left under the sun.

C. Heat flowed from the surrounding hot air to the cooler jar and transferred heat to the pennies by conduction.
