Question

What will happen if water is stored in an earthen pot in WINTER on a COOL day and why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Look . It's simple.The cooling process works through evaporative cooling. Capillary action causes water to evaporate from the mini-pores in the pot, taking the heat from the water inside, thus making the water inside cooler than the outside temperature. Hence it is used only during summer and not in winter.

Answer 2

Water looses its temperature through small pores present in the pot. Hence in an earthen pot (matka) become cool during summer.
