Answer 2

Answer:

Q is hotter than P.

Explanation:

Heat always flows from a body at a higher temperature to a body at lower temperature (temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of the body). Since the heat flows from Q to P, Q must be at a higher temperature than at P, so Q must be hotter.

Temperature of the bodies determine the direction of transfer of heat energy.
