When you make a cup of tea, you boil the water to between 90 and 100 degrees centigrade. The molecules in the liquid water are at a higher energy state and get to lose their energy quicker. The water in a bath is usually at 50 to 60 degrees and at a lower energy state therefore will lose its heat more slowly.

The same effect is noticed if you use hot water to melt ice on a path rather than cold water. The hot water loses its energy quicker and would turn to ice quicker than the cold water.

Why does water take longer to cool down?

Water takes longer to cool down because it has a high specific heat capacity, meaning it requires a lot of energy to change its temperature. Additionally, water is a good conductor of heat, allowing it to distribute heat throughout its volume efficiently. These properties make water slower to cool down compared to other substances.
