Why are tile floors cold?
Tile floors are cold because they have high thermal conductivity, meaning they can rapidly transfer heat away from your body. Unlike materials like carpet or wood, which provide some insulation, tile does not retain heat well, making it feel colder to the touch. Additionally, tile floors can feel colder in winter due to the temperature difference between the floor and the heated indoor air.
When a person steps from a cold shower onto a tile floor why is c?
When a person steps from a cold shower onto a tile floor, condensation can form on the tiles due to the temperature difference between the cold water on the person's skin and the warm air in the room.

Additionally, the cold temperature of the water can temporarily decrease sensitivity in the feet, increasing the risk of losing balance.

Does tile give off heat or cold?
HOT and COLD are relative terms, not absolutes. I can feel cold when other people are hot. Heat is an absolute. It is a form of energy. Tile will absorb heat if the surroundings are at a higher temperature. Tile will release heat if the surroundings are at a lower temperature. Just like water. Water at 1000C will release heat to a room of 220C, but water at 50C will absorbe heat from the same room. Nothing gives off cold. That is just the relative feeling of something that is absorbing a lot of heat from its surroundings.
