When the sun's rays strike land and water do they heat up as fast as each other?
no ,land gets heated faster than water.
Which warms up slower and holds it heat longer water or land?
Given equal volumes and equal temperature changes without any change of state, no substance requires as much heat for a given temperature increase or expels as much heat during the equivalent temperature decrease than water.
Why does land surface cool off more rapidly than water?
Because solids cool off and heat up more rapidly than liquids.
Why does the heat equator move farther into the Northern Hemisphere in July than it moves into the Southern Hemisphere in January?
There is more land surface in the Northern Hemisphere and land has a lower specific heat than water therefore warming faster than the vast oceans of the Southern Hemisphere.
How high do GHDs heat up to?
I think that the highest temperature that G.H.Ds can get up to is 400 degrees Celsius, but always use it with hair heat defence spray!
Does water heat up faster or does land?
water warms up slower than land. It also loses heat slower.
What are the effect heat on land?
The land dries up and the crops can die.
What warms up quicker land or water?
The land because water takes time to heat and cool. Also if the piece of land is dark colored then it will absorb more solar radiation then the water.
Does water heat up just as quickly as land heats up?
it heats up much faster, the specific heat value of water is very low, and the specific heat value of land is almost always higher than that of water.
Why does the sun heat the land up the most?
The sun heats land more because the rays of the sun do not bounce off or reflect the heat and that is why the sun hets land more.
Which will heat up faster a pond or a meadow and why?
Meadow; During the day ,the land heats up faster than the sea. At night, the land loses heat faster than the sea does.
Do oceans heat and cool down faster than land areas?
Oceans heat up faster than on land, but cools down slower.
How fast land absorb heat?
Absorption of heat by land(compared to water)Specific heat of land is 0.84J/kg and that of water is 4.2J/Kg.So:-4.2-0.84=3.6Therefore, land gets heated up 3.6 times faster than water.
What part of the earth heat faster water or land?
Land heats up faster than water.
Can land heat up and cool down faster than water?
Yes.
Does a lake heat up more slowly than the land around it?
yes
What does water take longer o do than land?
Water takes longer to heat up and to cool down then it does for land.
