Question

Why are we able to Sip hot tea or milk faster from a saucer rather than a cup?

Answer 1

Answer:

Heya buddy here is your answer

Explanation:

A liquid has a larger surface area in a saucer than in a cup. ... The larger is the surface area more is, the more evaporation. Thus, evaporation is faster in a saucer causing more cooling than in a cup. For this reason, we can sip hot tea or milk faster from a saucer than a cup.

Answer 2

Saucer has a bigger surface area as compared to cup. Since evaporation is a surface phenomenon, by using a saucer instead of cup we are increasing the surface are for evaporation to occur. Faster evaporation of particles of tea or milk allows cooling and taking a sip becomes easier.
