A
Pressure of the liquid
B
Temperature in the enclosure
C
Pressure of the enclosure
D
Volume of the liquid
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
The temperature difference between the heated liquid and the surrounding environment (the enclosure) is a crucial factor in determining the rate of heat transfer.
According to Newton's Law of Cooling, the rate of cooling is proportional to the temperature difference between the object and its surroundings.
