We feel ice at 0 degrees Celsius as cooler than water at the same temperature because ice has a lower thermal conductivity and can absorb more heat from our skin without significantly increasing its temperature. Additionally, the phase change of ice melting into water requires energy (latent heat), which draws heat away from our skin, enhancing the sensation of cold. This means ice can more effectively extract heat from our body compared to water.
Of course, unless you feel hot which probably means you should wear something cooler.
No, water and air at the same temperature of 26 degrees Celsius may feel different due to their differing heat capacities and conductivities. Water tends to retain heat more effectively than air, so while they are both 26 degrees, water may feel cooler to the touch compared to air at the same temperature.
Water can make you cooler through a process called evaporation. When water evaporates off your skin, it absorbs heat energy from your body, making you feel cooler. This effect is enhanced if the water is cool or if there is a breeze to help with evaporation.
The moving air stream from a fan increases the rate of evaporation on the skin, which can make it feel cooler. The air movement also helps to dissipate body heat, making it feel cooler compared to still air.
Water has a higher thermal conductivity compared to air, which means it can absorb or release heat more efficiently. When water comes in contact with our skin, it conducts heat away from our body faster than air, making it feel cooler even if both are at the same temperature. Additionally, water has a higher specific heat capacity than air, which means it can absorb more heat energy before its temperature increases, contributing to the sensation of coolness.
A decrease in temperature of 35 degrees Fahrenheit would feel cooler because Fahrenheit degree intervals are smaller than Celsius degree intervals. This means a change of 35 degrees Fahrenheit corresponds to a larger change in temperature compared to 35 degrees Celsius.
35 deg C. A Celsius degree is bigger than a Fahrenheit degree.
The bucket of water at 50 degrees Celsius would feel warmer because it has a higher temperature. However, the bathtub filled with water at 25 degrees Celsius likely stores more energy due to its larger volume of water even though it may feel cooler.
Yes, this is because when you touch ice at 0 degrees Celsius, it absorbs heat from your skin in order to melt and reach equilibrium with the surrounding temperature. This heat absorption process makes the ice feel colder to the touch than the water at 0 degrees Celsius, which is already at its melting point.

Bath salts do not make the water feel cooler, but they are designed to soften the water. This will result a less "harsh" feeling on your skin which may have felt cooler and softer to the touch.
-38.8 degree Celsius = 234.35 Kelvin = -37.84 degree Fahrenheit The temperature is about 39 degree below melting point of ice and is pretty cold.
Water at 100 degrees Fahrenheit would feel very warm to the touch, nearing the temperature of a typical hot tub. It would likely feel pleasant at first but could quickly become uncomfortable or even scalding if exposed for too long.
The wind can make it feel cooler - wind chill.
To tell you the truth, if you think about, the clothes you wear are sticking to your skin making you feel hot. When you take your clothes off, it already makes you feel way cooler. Also, since the pool is usually cool/cold, that just makes you feel cooler on a hot summer's day.
Because the air is cooler then the water which makes it feel cool
The wind can make it feel cooler - wind chill.
