Read the thermometers placed inside the ovens and record their initial temperatures. Place both ovens outside in direct sunlight. After 30 minutes, check the temperature of each oven. Find the difference between the initial temperature and the temperature after 30 minutes. How did they compare?

Multiple Choice:

A. The temperatures increased equally in both ovens.
B. The temperatures decreased equally in both ovens.
C. The temperatures increased more in one oven than the other.
D. The temperatures decreased more in one oven than the other.

Answer :

Final answer:

The temperatures increased more in one oven than the other. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The temperatures increased more in one oven than the other.

When placing the ovens outside in direct sunlight, they will both experience an increase in temperature. However, the temperature increase may not be the same for both ovens. Factors such as the material of the oven and its insulation properties can affect how much heat is absorbed by each oven. Therefore, it is possible that one oven may increase in temperature more than the other.
