Consider two coffee cups A and B. Small coffee cup heaters are placed in cups A and B and heat is transferred to keep cup A at 45°C and cup B at 35°C. Room temperature is 25°C. The cups contain the same amount of water (100 grams). Which answer best describes the rates at which heat must be transferred to maintain the temperatures described above?: * A. Cup A will require heat at about five times the rate of B. B. Cup A will require heat at about twice the rate of B. C. Cup A will require heat at a slightly faster rate than B. D. Both cups will require heat at the same rate.
