When does land and water absorb and lose heat?
It absorbs heat faster
Does water gain heat or lose heat faster than h20?
land loses heat faster than H20
How fast does the body lose heat in water?
25 times faster
How fast does the body lose heat in cold water?
25 times faster
What holds heat longer soil or water?
Soil absorbs heat much faster than water, but water does not have air in between like soil so it doesnt lose heat as fast, so water holds heat longer
Why does the land lose heat more quickly at night than a body of water does?
bodies of water tend to have more object in and animals that produce their own heat. it also absorbs heat faster than land. water actually would lose heat faster if it didn't gain it faster. It's a more precarious kind of substance than earth is. but heat from the light reflecting off the moon and the fish in the water slow the temperature drop.
Does land lose heat faster than water?
Soil is solid. Its molecules are close to one another so it heats faster. It also cools faster. Water is liquid. Molecules in liquids are farther apart so water heats more slowly............ Andre Ü
Why does a cup of tea lose heat faster than without a lid?
cus its uncoverd your letting all the heat out
Which type of water freezes first fresh or salt water?
Fresh water freezes at a higher temperature than Salt water. So Fresh Water doesn't have to lose as much heat in a given amount of time in order to Freeze.
If something is conductor of heat does it lose heat fast or slow?
If something is a good conductor of heat, it heats up faster and loses heat at a slower rate.
Why does a person lose body temperature faster in water than in air because water?
Water is hydrobolic
Does water or soil lose heat faster?
Soil will lose heat faster than water. This depends on the specific heat of the two substances you are comparing. Specific heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to raise its temperature by 1 degree celsius. It also describes the amount of energy the substance would have to lose to change the temperature by one degree. The specific heat of water is unusually high (1 calorie/gram of water). The specific heat of granite, which is similar to the specific heat of soil minerals, is only 0.19 calorie/gram of granite). Dry soil will lose heat more slowly than wet soil.
