A cold pack contains a specialized gel that is cooled in a freezer. When applied to an injured muscle, the pack warms up, absorbing thermal energy from the body.
Which thermal capacity of the gel and which temperature increase of the pack during use will result in the most thermal energy being absorbed from the body?
Large thermal capacity, large temperature increase
Large thermal capacity, small temperature increase
Small thermal capacity, large temperature increase
Small thermal capacity, small temperature increase
