The sweat is evaporating. Evaporation requires energy - heat. That energy is removed from the surface of your skin, and you feel the loss of energy as cold.

Does it burn more calories to drink cold or room temperature water?

It is because your body can digest water faster than anything else. Room temperature water does not have to be cooled down or warmed up for the body to accept. If you drink cold water, your body ahs to warm it to body temperature before it can be distributed throughout the body.


Why are droughts cold?

Droughts are cold because air is a natural cool temperature.. in your house your temperature is normally a warm or average temperature... your body..being warm as your core body temperature, you feels droughts because the air is pushed through under your door cooling the air inside the room. It's only cold because the room is normally, nevertheless warm. Another example - if your room was freezing cold you would most probably not even feel the drought only because the room if more colder then the air behind the door. - droughts are a natural cold substance and humans core temperature does not match up to it as same with the temperature of the room. (This is my estimated answer..may need summering up)


How your hands will feel when you place them in the container of room temperature water?

Body temperature is regulated by an intricate system called homeostasis. If the external (outside) temperature is hotter or colder than our body then various things come into play to maintain our body heat. If you put your hand into room temperature water (room temperature is generally accepted to be 20 degrees C) then it will feel cold, because body temp is about 37 degrees C. The water will absorb heat energy from your hand, making it feel cold, until the temperature of the water and the temperature of your hand are the same. Or until you decide that shoving your hand in cool water is pointless...If you put your hand into water that is at 37 degrees C then you won't notice any temperature difference. It just feels wet. It's really weird, try it!


What is the difference between hot humid and cold humid air?

If it is hot humid air, the air will be filled with a lot of moisture, and your hands feel all sticky and when you breathe, the air feels thick. But when it's cold humid air, the air has less moisture and it may feel easier to breath in. But it still has the same humidity as the hot air, you just feel it different. This is because when you say the air is humid, you are basically saying that the air has moisture in it. But the air always has moisture in it, but you can feel it when there is high humidity. So when it is cold air, you feel the humidity less. Because if it is hot air, that means the sun must be out, and when the sun is out, it evaporates the sweat and moisture off your skin and goes into the air. That is why in a crowded room, we describe the air as 'stuffy' because it is filled with the body heat from all the people in the room. I hope I answered your question properly. :)
