Why does sand gets warmer than dirt?
sand because dirt has water in it but sand does not
Sand and dirt which gets hotter?
Sand is usually lighter in colour than dirt. Therefore dirt will absorb more energy and warm up quicker.
Does wet sand heat faster than dry sand?
The dry sand would heat up faster because there are less compact molecules then the wet sand, so it's easier for the sun's warming rays to get through the molecules.
Which will hold more sand gravel or dirt?
sand has more porosity because sand has a very smaller particle size than dirt. relatively, the smaller the particle size, the higher the porosity. clay has the highest porosity than other soils. sand has high porosity. dirt has low porosity
Is sand or dirt warmer?
Well to find out what gets warmer sand or dirt you would probably need 2 plastic cups, 2 thermometers, sand, dirt and then you would have to take it outside probably in the sun or some warm area wate for about three hours and check to see what is warmer.

Why is dirt cooler than sand?
Cause it wants to be. Oh hi mark.
Why does wind erode dry sediment more easily than wet rock?
The wind does that because the sand is wet. Being wet means the sand has higher density and weight so it is less easily eroded.
Why do sedimentary rocks erode faster than others?
Sedimentary rocks tend to erode easily compared to other types of rocks as the grains within them are farther apart than the "grains" in, let's say, igneous rocks. As a result of this, the "grains" can be easily crumble. An example of this is sand.

What is a sentence for sedimentary?
Example sentences: Fossils are often found in sedimentary rock. It is easier to erode sedimentary rock than other forms of rock.
Why do box turtles bury in dirt?
Because its easier than building a nest in a tree. Same principle.
Why does a layer of dirt build up on top of the sand in water treatment?
Dirt might be dissolved into the water while sand can not. However, not all dirt will dissolve. The dirt can be separated out from the sand as the sand would be heavier and would form a lower layer than the dirt when the suspension separates after shaking or stirring. Then the water with any suspended dirt particles could be decanted (poured) off from the top. This process could be repeated until the water on top was clear. The water could be evaporated off. Sand is non-polar while water is polar, therefore, sand will not dissolve. You can remember this by using a saying "like dissolves like." Polarized substances will dissolve polarized substances and vice versa.
