This is because water has got a wonderful property.Its Anamolous expansion.Unlike other liquids,when heated,water first contracts and then only expands.Below 4 degree celcius water first contracts and after that it start to expand.The straight forward answer to the above question is that the specific heat capacity of water is maximum.

∙ 12y agowhen ever the cold water is added to hot water, there exist a temperature difference between the molecules of hot water and cold water, always the teperature flows from higher temperature bodies to lower one that's why, the cold water molecules gain some heat from hotter molecules due to this the temperature of hot water reduces

∙ 14y agoDue to thermal expansion hot water has a greater surface area than an equal amount of cold water and can therefore dispense its heat more quickly.

Why do Land and water heat up cool down differently What can form from the unequal heating of the land and the sea?
Because the land doesn't have the water vapor that the ocean has because the sun heats the water into steam
Does ice or liquid heat up faster?
Liquid heats up faster. Ice take time to melt down first.
Does land cool down faster than water at night?
The water is colder in the day because the sun's rays are so hot that steams up the heat from the water.
Why does sand heat up faster then water boils?
because water is like pee, its hot. sand is like poo, its cold. halahalahahala.
Does salt make water cool down faster?
Salt lowers the freezing temperature of water, meaning that when a road is icy, people sprinkle salt on it so it will melt.
Does the particles in water move faster when it heats up?
no it slows down!
Which heats up fastest soil water air or sand?
Soil heats up and cools down the fastest. Water heats up regulary and does not cool down for a while. Sand heats up the slowest and cools down the slowest.
Does water cool down faster in smaller containers?
yes, if there is less water there is less to cool down
What happens to the temperature of equal volumes of soil and water when they are placed in the sunshine for 30 minutes minutes?
both the water and soil heats up but the soil heats up rapidly and the water heats up slowly. If it cools down the soil cools down faster and the water cools down slower.
Does water or sand cool faster after dark?
Sand cools down faster after dark
Which cools down faster land or water?
Assuming the water is deep (like a lake or ocean), it can hold much more heat than the surface of the land, so it cools slower. This results in coastal breezes enjoyed by sailors.

Can land heat up and cool down faster than water?
Yes.
Does hot water cool faster than cool water?
yes, hot water just cools down cold water will turn into ice which will take longer
Can hot or cold water freeze faster?
Cold water freezes faster because hot water has to cool down to the freezing temperature before it can freeze.
Differential heating of land and water?
unequal heating of land and water results to breezes breezes are of two types: sea breeze and land breeze it also results to moving air or wind i am doing a project in class what i need to do make a plan!!!
Why is hot water freeze faster?
If you mean, compared with cold water, it doesn't. Hot water has to cool down first, before it freezes.
