Explain why large bodies of water cause local winds to shift direction from day to night?
During the day the land gets is heated fast, but the water takes a while to heat up. At night, water cools down right away, as does land, land absorbs heat faster than water and can also gets cooler faster.
Which will heat up faster on a hot day a desert or a lake and why?
The desert will heat up faster than a lake. The sand particles have greater thermal conductivity and hence will take up heat faster than water molecules which do not take up heat as easily. It is also the reason why it is cooler at the sea side.
Does water in the sun evaporates faster than water in the shade?
the water in the sun evaporates faster than in the shade because the heat speeds up the process of evaporation
Why do water boil faster in a cloudy day than a non cloudy day?

Why do sand and water have two different temperatures?
this would also depend on he amount of moisture in the dirt. sand gets hotter than soil,did you ever walk on a sandy beach on a sunny day of the summer? it gets so hot then you can't walk on it barefoot. if the heath could be extracted it could be used to produced energy.
On a warm summer day the sand on a beach is very hot and at night the sand feels cool What happen to the heat in the sand?
It just cools off like your food cools off coming out of the microwave!

What forms when air over land cools faster than air over water?
If you swim in the water or touch the water, it is a bit warm compared to the air that surrounds you. This usually happens during night in a hot day.
Why on a summer day would a Florida beach be cooler than in Orange Grove that is 2 km in land?
because a grove absorbs heat quicker than the beach, plus the water cools the sand at the beach.
Which one cools faster at night a desert or a swamp?
A desert cools much faster than a swamp as rock and sand does not retain heat very well, while the water in a swamp is a very good retainer of heat.Clarification:Clouds and high humidity act as a blanket that prevents the heat from a swamp from radiating into space once the sun goes down. The desert usually has no such protection and the heat quickly radiates into space once the sun goes down.
Which heats up faster when applied to heat sand or air?
Sand does. Think about going to the beach on a hot summer day. The sand is always very hot, and most people will either be dancing around in the sun or wearing sandals. However, when they wade in the water or even go swimming, the water is always cooler. I hope this answers your question.
Why do you get land breezes?
Land breezes usually occur at night. The sun warms the sea and the land during the day. At night, the land cools faster than the water. The heat rising off the water causes lower pressure over the water which draws air away from the land.
Why is the sand warmer than water during the day?
the sand is warmer than water in day because the sands are compacted together, it easily gets the heat of the sun through out of it
Is sea breeze at day or night time?
Sea breezes happen at day time and the sun warms up the ground and water.Water warms and cools down slower then the land does, and water is more dense are packed with more particles then land is witch makes land warmup and cool down faster then water
Why is ocean water cooler than sand during the day?
