Objects A and B both have mass 2 kg. Object A has temperature 20°C and Object B has temperature 40°C. The specific heat of Object A is larger than that of Object B. The two objects are isolated from the environment and are brought into thermal contact with each other and allowed to come to thermal equilibrium. Is the final temperature of both objects greater than, less than or equal to 30°C? Briefly explain your reasoning.

Equal to 30°C.

Explanation:

The final temperature of both objects are equal to 30°C because of the conduction heat from one object to another. Both objects have same mass of 2 kg and both were isolated from the external environment so conduction of heat occurs from the more hotter body to the less hotter body until the temperature of both objects are equal to each other.

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
