If the humidity in Delhi is at 52% while in Kochi it is 84%, in which of the two places are wet clothes likely to dry faster? And where are you likely to sweat more, assuming the temperature is the same in both places?

Wet clothes will dry faster in Delhi because of lower humidity (52%). In Kochi, higher humidity (84%) slows evaporation. You’ll sweat more in Kochi as sweat doesn’t evaporate easily. Delhi feels more comfortable due to quicker drying and better cooling through evaporation.

    1. In Delhi, where humidity is 52%, wet clothes dry faster because the air can absorb more moisture. In Kochi, with 84% humidity, evaporation is slower, so clothes remain wet longer. You’ll also sweat more in Kochi because high humidity reduces the evaporation of sweat from your skin, making you feel hotter and stickier. In Delhi, sweat evaporates faster, cooling the body. This difference shows how humidity affects comfort, drying time and our ability to cool down.
