How does the temperature differ for dry sand and water when they are exposed to equal amounts of light?

Geography
1 answer:
lukranit [14]3 years ago
7 0
When dry sand and water are both exposed to equal amounts of light, you will find that water is cooler than sand.
This is because the amount of heat needed to heat the water is less than that needed to heat sand, thus, sand heats faster.

Why does lava cool quickly above ground
Anna35 [415]
Lava cools more rapidly above ground than it does underground because it's much colder above ground than it is underground, speeding up the process.
Think about it this way: If you put a cup of water in two freezers, and Freezer A had a lower temperature than Freezer B, the water in Freezer A would freeze quicker because it is in a colder environment. Hope this helps!
