Answer 1

It’s because some materials like sucking up heat more than others, and tile likes sucking up heat more than wood. When the tile sucks the heat out of the bottom of your feet, it feels like it’s cold, but wood doesn’t like sucking heat out of your feet, so your feet don’t lose their heat so they feel warm.
