You are doing an experiment outside on a sunny day you find the temperature of some sand is 28 degress celsius you also find the temperature of some water is 25 degrees celsius explain the difference in temperatures/6947257/eea30378? utm_source=registration

Land is hotter than water because Land surfaces absorb much more solar radiation than water. This is due to the fact that most land surfaces are darker than water which of course means more absorption of solar radiation and heat. Water reflects most solar radiation that reaches its surface back to the atmosphere.this also causes water to heat up longer and cool down slower than land would

If the experiment was perfomed more then once and you get the same results
