A
When thermal energy flows from a warmer object to a cooler object, thermal energy is conserved as all the thermal energy is used to do work.
B
When thermal energy flows from objects that have the same temperature, thermal energy is conserved as thermal energy is used to do work and heat is released to the surroundings.
C
When thermal energy flows from a warmer object to a cooler object, thermal energy is conserved as thermal energy is used to do work and heat is released to the surroundings.
