If we heat soil and water for 10 min and let them cool for 10 min, the soil will heat rapidly and cool slowly, because dark colors absorb a lot of heat. When we heated the materials up, the temperature difference for soil was 6.1 degrees Celsius. The temperature difference for water was 2.4 degrees Celsius.
