Why do some objects feel colder than other objects of the same temperature?
The ones that feel colder, have better heat conduction.
Why does the tap in a bathroom feel so much colder than the bath mat in the same room?
its called thermal conductivity. because the metal on the tap is much more thermally conductive than the bath mat, and they are both at a colder temperature than your body temperature, when you touch the tap and the bath mat the heat from your body is transferred much faster to the tap making your skin feel cold.
Can an object feel hotter than another if they have same temperature?
Yes - if they have different properties of thermal conductivity.
How can 2 objects that are the same temperature feel as if they are different temps?
The difference may be due to different conductivity. For example, if you touch hot metal, heat flows from the metal to your fingers. Because of the metal's good conductivity, more heat will quickly replenish the heat the metal has lost - the heat will flow quickly to your fingers. Do the same with glass (a bad conductor), and only a small amount of heat will flow. The glass in contact with your skin will quickly have the same temperature as your skin.
Why does it feel warm when you are in the pool for a while?
There could be two reasons, from a common man's stand point. Either A) Your body hits the cold water and it tells itself "Hey! You need to warm up! Or you'll die.", therefore, your body works to warm itself up and you get warm due to the body process. Or B) Heat transfer is at work. This is when two different objects of different temperatures come in contact. The hotter object cools down and the cooler object warms up until both objects are at an Equilbrium or an equal temperature.

The ones that feel colder, have better heat conduction.
Why does your body feel cold when in an air-conditional room?
This is because your body temperature is different from the surrounding's temperature and it has a large difference.

Yes - if they have different properties of thermal conductivity.
Can you feel your own temperature with your hand?
Yes it is very possible to feel the temperature if you slightly place the backside of your hand to the center of the forehead you can then feel if it is a higher temperature than normal.

How does a butterfly hear smell and feel objects?
Its antenna
Does inanimate objects feel pain?
No they don't have nerves.
If the temperature is low?
If the temperature is low , the air will feel cold.
Which elements of art refers to the way an objects feels or the appearance of how an objects might feel if touched?
texture
How do you feel when temperature is low?
Many people feel wonderful when the temperature is low because they are not hot or sweating while they are working. Some people feel miserable when the temperature is low because they prefer higher temperatures.
Do inanimate objects feel?
no. theyre inanimate. theyre not alive.
