Question

Answer 1

Hey!
The answer is..... Evaporation Process taking place there as earthen pot have small pores due to which water comes out and due to water vapour present in the atmosphere water which is at outer surface evaporates

Hope this answer helps you....

Answer 2

Hey your answer..
Ans)..
Because earthenware pots are slightly porous some water seeps through the walls and evaporates from the outstide of the pot.

It takes energy to evaporate water though, just as it takes energy to boil it, and the only place it can draw this energy from is the pot itself and the water inside the pot, so the faster it evaporates, the cooler the water becomes.

Simple magic. Not magic; physics. Still magic though.Why will water kept in a clay pot be cooler than water kept in a metal container? It is because In an earthen pot, water gets evaporated quickly through the pores.Cooling is caused by evaporation. Some heat energy is utilised during the process of evaporation.
