How do large bodies of water affect winter and summer temperatures?
If you live closer to the ocean you will have warmer winters because the land is getting heated up faster by the sun and it takes longer for it to heat the ocean so it takes longer for the water t heat up or to cool down.And also if you live near the ocean you will have cooler summers because it takes longer for it to warm up the ocean and the sun hits the land the most not the ocean.
Does the ocean heat up faster then the air?
no but it also means the ocean will retain the heat for longer
How does the ocean affect the costal climate?
The ocean affect the coastal climate because water takes longer to heat and to cool than the land does and thus the climate of places that are near the ocean are moderated by the water.
Which best describes one way a large body of water such an ocean influences climates?
At day the ocean air is cool and at night it's warm because water takes longer to heat and cool then land.
Why is the air cooler near the ocean than it is away from the ocean?
Because water heats slower. So if you were on land it would heat up alot faster than if you were swimming in the ocean.Because water heats slower. So if you were on land it would heat up alot faster than if you were swimming in the ocean.
Does air or water loose heat faster?
air. water takes longer to warm, but it also takes longer to cool.

Does heat affect the freezing water?
Yes - it takes longer to freeze water if you add heat - or melts it, if already frozen
Does a dryer shrink clothing if the heat is turned off?
No, but the process of drying takes significantly longer when heat isn't applied.
How does the absorption of energy from the sun differ from land and water?
Land absorbs heat energy from the sun quickly, but it also releases the heat (cools down) more quickly than water. Water reflects more of the energy than land does, so it takes longer to warm. Water also holds the heat longer than land. This is why the sea is warmer for swimming at the very end of summer, even when the land is cooling.
