Question

Does land cool at a slower or faster rate than water? Give one reason.

Answer 1

1. Land has lower heat capacity than water.
2. Therefore, if the same amount of temperature change occurs in land and water, the amount of heat required to do this will be more for water than for the land.
3. As a result, the water will take more time to cool than the land.

Hence, the land cools faster than water.
