Why does water feel cool when it evaporates

Physics
2 answers:
Tju [1.3M]2 years ago
5 0

Basically, when water evaporates, it always absorbs energy. What happens is that a molecule steals surface energy for all molecules until it is hot enough to evaporate. This is how the evaporation process happens. For this reason, the surface cools because the molecules steal the heat from the medium. This can easily be noticed when we sweat and after the water molecules evaporate from our body, it cools.

Questions E6 a&amp; b and E7 a&amp;b?
erica [24]

Explanation:

6a) Work = force × distance

W = Fd

W = (60 N) (10 m)

W = 600 J

6b) Change in energy = work

ΔKE = 600 J

7a) Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the velocity.

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (0.4 kg) (25 m/s)²

KE = 125 J

7b) Work = change in energy.  When the ball is stopped, it has zero kinetic energy.

W = ΔKE

W = 0 J − 125 J

W = -125 J

Describe the energy transfer when you touch a block of ice with your hand
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Thermal energy always flows from the warmer object to the colder object. This causes your hand to get cold, while the ice absorbs your heat and melts.
