My hotel room has a bathtub/shower in it. Normally when I shower I have to consciously dry off with a towel for a long period, however after taking a bath I was nearly completely dry before the water even drained and I barely had to use a towel! Is there some… weird hydrodynamics at play?
In: Physics
Your head and your upper body probably don’t spend much time submerged in the bath (not sure of your habits!). If so, you only have half your body to dry, and you don’t have water running all the way down your body.
Your lower body also generally has less tactile sensation (some exclusions apply) so you won’t be as conscious of not feeling dry.
