What can you conclude about the difference in how land and water heat up cool down?
In general the land surface, being darker and less reflective, will absorb a great deal of solar radiation, and will have a significant increase in temperature on a bright sunny day. The ocean, at the same time, will reflect a greater portion of the radiation, and in addition, since water has such a high thermal coefficient, will have a much smaller increase in temperature. Thirdly, the water will spread the radiation to a depth that is not possible on the land. For all these reasons the water will remain cooler than the land on sunny day.
At night, the darker colours of the land will cause it to radiate its heat quickly, and its temperature will drop rapidly. The water will radiate more slowly, has a greater heat 'reserve' due to its high thermal coefficient, and as the surface cools, it will be displaced by warmer water from below due to the density changes that occur. As a result, an hour or so after sunset, the ocean will be warmer than the land, and will remain so for a large part of the night.

Why do you have water running down your windows every morning?
Water condensation from the cool night air
Why does hot water cool quicker in the first 5 minutes?
This is because of newtons law of cooling, the rate that the water cools is proportional to the difference between the temperature of the water and the temperature of the surroundings. So, as the water is hotter it cools faster, as it cools down the rate of cooling decreases.
How fast does hot water cool?
Basically, the rate at which the water will cool depends on the difference between the water's temperature, and the temperature of its surroundings. The higher the temperature difference, the faster it cools. There are some other factors, but that's the gist of it...
Why does steam turn into water on a window?
It is absorbed into the drier air from outside the bathroom.
Why is water sprayed on road in evening in hot summer?
Either to cool down the road surface - or to keep dust down at ground level.
Can mints cool down water?
No. Mint does not cool down water. It only creates the senation of something being cool.
Which statement best describes a difference between land and water surfaces?
Land surfaces heat up and cool down faster than water surfaces.
Why does water cool faster in the beieging then at the end?
In the beginning of what ? At the end of what ?Do you mean "Why does hot water cool faster than cool water ?" ?Because the rate at which heat passes from a warm object to a cool objectdepends on the difference in their temperatures. So, as the warm objectbecomes less warm and the difference in their temperatures becomes smaller,the rate at which heat flows between them also becomes less.
What is the difference between the temperature of soil and water after 6 minutes?
After 6 minutes, soil tends to heat up and cool down more slowly compared to water due to differences in their specific heat capacity. Consequently, water will generally cool down or heat up faster than soil.
What affects a fire?

No.
