  1. Kochi likely has higher humidity than Jaipur since it’s a coastal city. Jaipur, being inland, is drier. To confirm this, we can use hygrometers to measure relative humidity at both places. To compare Kochi and Mangaluru, we would measure humidity levels regularly at both cities and compare the data. Consistent readings over days or weeks help us determine which city has more water vapor in the air, affecting comfort, drying of clothes and sweating.
