they absorb your heat off your skin to keep you cool.
Tes but it absorbs it in the form of heat
there is no specific set time; it depends on how direct the heat source is and how much heat or light there is
about how do soil and water compare in their ability to absorb and release heat
A sponge definitely does have the ability to absorb heat. Sponges absorb heat as well as many other things like water.

Water absorb heat from sun. it releases heat into the air.
It absorbs heat faster
Dirt is just matter. It gets hot or cold based on whether energy is being added or removed from it. Earth's core is very hot, but "dirt" goes not conduct heat as fast as it can radiate heat to space (or convect heat into the atmosphere). Dirt will absorb energy from sunlight, and get warm. Dirt will lose any moisture it has, which will tend to cool the dirt. Dirt will support decomposition of buried biomass, which will tend to heat the dirt.

Evaporation is an endothermic process, absorb water.
With water been about to absorb heat water is a major plus for industries. It can go in your cars radiator for cooling the heat of the water also helps regulate the air changing temperature.
to absorb heat
Evaporation absorb heat from the environment.
