it is known that water evaporation and hence sweat evaporation decreases when humidity is increased, knowing that sweat evaporation is the only means of heat dissipation when the temperature of the surroundings exceeds that of the skin, the human body should sweat more profusely when put in a humid environment; so as to lose heat. i would imagine, for example, that a person would sweat say 3 times more in a humid weather than in a dry one; as the rate of evaporation in a humid weather is lower than that of a dry one. please provide me with proper references along with a convincing answer, i hope i hadn't asked for too much lol

I have a circle of radius one, and draw a chord across it of length squareroot(3). In the minor segment I draw a rectangle - which has one side along the chord and has the opposite two points touching the edge of the circle. The question - what is the largest size of rectangle that can be fitted within the minor segment? Proof would be great!
