It is hotter at 3 pm rather than at noon because the atmosphere helps trap heat. At noon the sun is at its highest point, therefore it is hot outside. It is hotter at 3 pm because the heat is built up to its highest temperature throughout that entire day.

A delay between earths absorption of solar energy and an increase in temperature makes the warmest part of the day?

The delay in Earth's absorption of solar energy is due to the time it takes for the land and water to heat up. This delay causes the warmest part of the day to occur in the late afternoon, after peak solar radiation has been received. The lag in temperature increase is a result of the Earth's thermal inertia and the redistribution of heat across the planet.
