Question 1 0/1 pt When you walk barefoot in a room, the floor feels cooler walking on a tile floor as compared to a wooden floor because tile has a larger thermal conductivity than wood. tile has a smaller thermal conductivity than wood. Otile has a smaller specific heat than wood. tile has a larger specific heat than wood. none of these

Answer 1

Tiles are better thermal conductor than wood. When we put our foot on tile, heat is transferred readily, that's why tiles feel colder. While heat transfer from foot to wood floor will take more time, because of less heat conductivity, that's why woods feel warmer.

Tile has larger thermal conductivity than wood.

decrease, but by a factor different from 3/2
