Why a person feels cooler when he pours a little spirit on his hand?
Short answer: enthalpy of vaporization. I assume that by "spirit" you mean alcohol. The alcohol evaporates, and the energy for it to do so comes from the heat of your hand, so your hand cools slightly. You sweat for essentially the same reason.
How do bodies use evaporation?
Bodies use evaporation as a cooling mechanism. When we sweat, the moisture on our skin evaporates, taking away heat from the body and cooling us down. This helps regulate our body temperature during physical exertion or in hot environments.
When a piece of wood is painted is that a physical change?
That's complicated. The wood is simply covered up, so that's a physical difference. Application of the paint is also physical, you are just putting it somewhere else. What happens as the paint dries depends on the type of paint. Evaporation of the solvent is also physical, but as gloss paint dries chemical changes happen to produce the permanent skin.
Why evaporation makes your skin feel cooler?
Evaporation causes a cooling effect on the skin because as water molecules on the skin evaporate into the air, they take away heat energy with them. This heat transfer process cools the skin surface, providing a sensation of cooler temperature.
How does the evaporation of water from your skin cools you on a hot day?
