What best explains the difference in temperature between the ocean and the sand?
Water both heats up and cools down at a slower rate than land.
What is heats and cools more slowly than land?
Water
How does air temperature over land and adjacent bodies of water change between day and night?
In the daytime the Sun heats up the surface of the Oceans slightly faster than the Earth's surfaces: it heats the air above and the Wind runs from the Land to the Sea. In the evening the Sun's warmth is retained in the mass of the Earth's surface longer than in the Oceans' bulk: it heats the air above and the Wind flows from the Sea to the Land.
If Specific heat of water is greater than that of land This means?
Water heats and cools slower than land. It is because the specific heat is the amount of heat that it takes to be raised to a certain temperature. If the heat is higher it would take longer to heat and cool. That is my interpretation anyways.
What warm and cools slower than land?
My sister had a book about that. It said "Michigan's great lakes keeps us warm in the winter and cooler in the summer. This is because water cools and warms up slower."

What heats and cools fastest in a 24 hour period land or water?
Land.
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.
Why does land heats and cools faster than water?
beacause its solid
What is always true when there is an ocean breeze?
When there is a land breeze, that means that the land is colder than the water. This occurs in the colder seasons, mainly winter. That is because water heats and cools slower than land. Therefore in the winter, the land cools faster than the water, and the water is warmer. So, the cold air from the land sinks and blows towards the sea.
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 New England have mild winters?
The ocean cools and heats up slower than land does; therefore, during winter, the ocean is as warm as the land in summer and in summer the water is as warm as the land in winter.
Which is the cause of a sea breeze?
Land heats and cools more quickly than water.
Which dissipates heat more quickly land or water?
Land heats and cools faster than water.
Are sea and land breezes caused because the land heats and cools more quickly than the water?
yes
