| WHICH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS STATES THAT U HAVE 2 OBJECTS, A AND B, ARE FOUND TO BE IN THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM (SAME TEMP). ALSO, OBJECTS B AND C ARE SEPARETELY, FOUND TO BE IN THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM. THEREFORE, OBJECTS A AND C WILL BE IN THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM IF PLACED IN THERMAL CONTACT OF ONE ANOTHER, AND NO HEAT WILL FLOW BETWEEN A AND C. |
