well because the soil sits in the sin all day so then its used to light. as for water it really doesn't sit in the sun all day. so that is why soil heats up faster than water

Which substance would heat up faster air water soil or sand?
Soil
Why does sand heat up faster than soil?
Soil heats up faster than sand because soil is more moist and has certain chemical in it so that it is partially flammable. I hope ive helped! Love, 2016127
Do sand heat up faster than soil?
sand heats faster than soil
Does soil absorb radiation better than water?
Water absorbs and conducts radiation better. ex. electricity is a form of radiation this is false because water will take longer to absorb heat than soil but when the source of heat is gone the water will insulate more heat than the soil, therefore the water will keep heat longer than soil but the soil will heat up faster.
What happens to the temperature of equal volumes of soil and water when they are placed in the sunshine for 30 minits?
I assume that water and soil are separate, rather than a wet soil? The temperature of the dark soil would heat up faster than the water - as dark colours absorb heat.
What manipulated variable that heats up faster water or soil?
the water heats faster than soil.
Does water heat up faster than milk?
Milk will heat up faster.
What kinds of soil soak up water faster?
Clayey soil
Does water or soil lose heat faster?
Soil will lose heat faster than water. This depends on the specific heat of the two substances you are comparing. Specific heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to raise its temperature by 1 degree celsius. It also describes the amount of energy the substance would have to lose to change the temperature by one degree. The specific heat of water is unusually high (1 calorie/gram of water). The specific heat of granite, which is similar to the specific heat of soil minerals, is only 0.19 calorie/gram of granite). Dry soil will lose heat more slowly than wet soil.
Does water heat up faster than water?
no, specific heat will always be 4.16
If you place a cup of sand and a cup of water in the sun which one will heat up faster?
The sand will heat up faster.
Which warms up faster when heat is applied iron water sand or wood?
Iron has the lowest specific heat, so it will heat up faster.
