A little water experiment like this in rainy weather times? Why not?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\"Vattensk\u00e5l\"
\nFor this experiment you will need three bowls, big enough to bring down one or two hands.<\/p>\n

Pour hot water in one, cold in another and room-temperatured in the third.<\/p>\n

Put one hand in the warm water and the other in the cold. Hold them there for 30 seconds.<\/p>\n

Then place both hands in the room-temperatured water. Do your hands feel the same?<\/p>\n

Explanation:<\/strong> Human temperature sensation is sensitive to change. For example, when your hand is moved from cold to warm water, the body signals that the water is very hot – even if it is not.<\/p>\n

Experiment:<\/strong> To make this study an experiment, try answering any of the questions below. Don’t forget to set a hypothesis and explain the result.<\/span><\/div>\n
