imagine im in a kitchen. if i touch a paper plate, it feels lukewarm. if i touch a knife, it feels kinda cold. why do they feel like different temperatures?
They are the same temperature. When you touch something that feels cold even though it’s the same temperature, it’s because it’s conducting your body heat away from you. That’s why a tile floor feels colder than carpet and 72°F water feels cold while 72° air feels nice.
